Once again, Deb & I visited the gorgeous Jekyll Island, Georgia on February 18, 2017 to further our Jekyll Island photography adventure. While parking in one of the parking areas before walking to Driftwood Beach Deb noticed a beautiful Yellow-Rumped Warbler perched on a rather large chuck of driftwood in the marshes directly in front of the parking area. She excitingly exited her Jeep with camera in hand, slowed down, then started shooting. She managed to acquire several images of this colorful warbler before it took flight - then this one as it lifted off the driftwood. Of course, being this is an "action" shot we chose to post it first. We hope you approve and like it. Now for a few interesting facts about this bird.

The yellow-rumped warbler (Setophaga coronata) is a North American bird species combining four closely related forms: the eastern myrtle warbler (ssp coronata); its western counterpart, Audubon's warbler (ssp group auduboni); the northwest Mexican black-fronted warbler (ssp nigrifrons); and the Guatemalan Goldman's warbler (ssp goldmani)

Yellow-rumped warblers spend the breeding season in mature coniferous and mixed coniferous-deciduous woodlands (such as in patches of aspen, birch, or willow). In the western U.S. and in the central Appalachian Mountains, they are found mostly in mountainous areas. In the Pacific Northwest and the Northeastern U.S., they occur all the way down to sea level wherever conifers are present. During winter, yellow-rumped warblers find open areas with fruiting shrubs or scattered trees, such as parks, streamside woodlands, open pine and pine-oak forest, dunes (where bayberries are common), and residential areas. On their tropical wintering grounds they live in mangroves, thorn scrub, pine-oak-fir forests, and shade coffee plantation.
