The rare warbler I saw on Friday has been hanging around our house recently. It is a
Black-throated Blue Warbler and is really a south-eastern species, having between 15 and 25 official reports in Alberta. A few people have been over to see him, but all these photos are mine.

Here, it’s bending it’s wing over its back to get past a close tree branch as it flies.

  1. These are wonderful photos Ethan. I especially like the one where the wing is bent backwards. What a great experience to identify and photograph this unusal (iin Alberta)and beautiful bird. Canmore birders must be camped in your front yard!
