Warblers -Northern Parula

 One of the most common of our native warblers, the Northern Parulas arrive back here in early - mid May. Here are photos of two different males and a female all shot in the same general area, the second male a day or two later. The males are a little more striking with their prominent breast band and rusty flanks. You can notice the variation here in their coloration. They seem particularly attracted to apple trees which is where all three of these were photographed.
