Warbler close up...



 Found a male yellow-rumped warbler on the corner of  200 S. and Main in
SLC, freshly dead. Hit a window or possibly just died of complications of
migration.

Weird as it might sound, I picked it up and took it home. The kids and I
compared it to the field guides. It was a nice exercise and put the guide
drawings in perspective. All the markings were there--beautiful creature.
Binoculars don't do it justice.

Before someone calls to look at it (or rats me out to the feds), the
warbler was given a proper burial in the garden.
