My husband Townsend and I spent from 1:15pm-4:10pm observing & photographing the Hermit Warbler. We have clear photos of the bird eating several types bugs, worms including catapillars.
Another gorgous Warbler to see and add to my life list! Thank you Vinny P for such a stunning find! Photos will be posted tomorrow on my blog if your interested. Cheers, Mardi W.
