A male Myrtle (yellow-rumped) warbler peaks out from behind a tree trunk on a tiny tree branch, ready to take off.
The same male Myrtle (yellow-rumped) warbler from the previous image jumped to a nearby vertical tree branch and sits on it facing the camera. You can see its bright yellow shoulder patch and a bit of the head crest.
In a few weeks butter-butts will be here, among the first of 250-275 bird species migrating through our province. Spring 🌱 is an exciting time for birders everywhere but especially in wintry Manitoba.
