I remember being thrilled when I captured this shot in 2009 on my first visit to Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary. I just happened to turn around while descending the stairs from a platform overlooking a grasslands, and there he was — bird perched on a branch just a few feet away. Luckily, camera was ready and at hand!

He’s not a warbler, as originally thought, but a Blue-headed vireo.
