Yellow Warbler[edit]

The Yellow Warbler, Dendroica petechia, is a New World warbler. It is the most widespread Dendroica warbler, breeding in almost the whole of North America and down to northern South America.
Reason
Beautiful shot of this lovely bird in great light, in front of a nice smooth background and on a natural perch. In short there aren't many better pictures of this species.

  • Support great picture, great focus, and great caption. Z1720 19:32, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Too bad the background is a bit blurry. Still, the bird is very clear and that's primary. Matt Deres 20:19, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support: blurry background is not an issue as it allows focus on subject. --Kalyan 09:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support overall a very encyclopedic shot --Hadseys 11:46, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Excellent work.--MONGO 14:41, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support Beautiful shot--color, sharpness, composition, DOF (blur is spot-on, eliminating far background, deemphasizing the closer tree, and keeping the whole bird in sharp focus). I'm happy to make this my first FPC vote. :) Peter 16:31, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. Obviously will succeed, but I wanted to add that it is one of the best composed single animal photographs I've seen in a while, for many reasons said by Peter. Zakolantern 17:13, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

      • Oh, a 500mm, thats just WEAK. ; ) -Fcb981 15:32, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
