Northen Parula (Parula americana) - Foster Pond, Finger Lakes National Forest, New York
On Friday morning at the Finger Lakes National Forest, one of the better birds of the morning was a Northern Parula. We had at least two individuals but, as typical with Parulas, they were high in the canopy. At one point, I set up on a blooming apple tree to sit and see if anything would come into feed, as I had seen a several Yellow Warblers do just that. A few minutes after setting up, this Northern Parula visited briefly for about 30 seconds. I came away with a couple good frames, the best of which you see here.
