Yellow Warbler

[SPJ]

I was at work taking a break outside and saw a yellow warbler in the tree by me so I took out the cell phone and snapped a photo.



It allowed me to get so close for the photo, I figured what the heck and went to see how close I could actually get before it flew away.

I got real close.



After taking this photo, I put it back in the tree and it flew off.

Crazy. Never expected it to actually let me touch it.

I do some bird watching here in Fairbanks and have seen some nice yellow warb's too Did the bird seem sick at all?

[SPJ]

Not that I know of. It was making noise and had it's mouth open at first but then just chilled.
Took off fast after I put it back though.

Maybe it wanted to warm it's feet on your hand.
