minus-squareChaosCoati@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 months agoLooks like a Yellow Warbler to me. They like to be near water and are almost pure yellow with light reddish streaks on their chest, which I think I can see in the bird in your photo. Great shot! Warblers don’t like to sit still for long.
