MAGEE MARSH IS AN AMAZING BIRDING LOCATION IN EARLY/MID MAY AS THOUSANDS
OF BIRDERS ARRIVE AT THE BOARDWALK FOR WARBLER VIEWING.
NORTHWARD MIGRATION BRINGS A LARGE VARIETY OF WARBLERS (AND OTHERS)
TO THE SOUTHERN SHORE OF LAKE ERIE IN NORTHERN OHIO.
WARBLERS FEED IN THE TREETOPS BEFORE CONTINUING ON THEIR NORTHERN JOURNEY.
PHOTOGRAPHERS HOPE FOR A FLEETING OPPORTUNITY AT A BIRD WITHIN CAMERA REACH.
THE IMAGES IN THIS GALLERY DATED 1N 2008 WERE CAPTURED WITHIN ONE 24-HOUR PERIOD.
FIRST TIME USE OF A BETTER BEAMER MADE MANY OF THESE IMAGES POSSIBLE.
ALL IMAGES WERE CREATED WITH A HANDHELD CANON 100-400 LENS.
I ONLY WISH THAT I WOULD HAVE HAD MORE TIME TO SPEND IN THE AREA.

more images to follow....and, where possible,
I have added additional images of each bird to its individual gallery
