The rest of the "shopping trip"

Up and down, all around the town, find the food, Twinkle Toes. And a sharp beak.

Food search

Just imagine being in the supermarket shopping for food. Black and white warbler took ownership of this tree, its shopping aisle. Terrific acrobatics.  
 









More to follow.

Black throated blue

                Female black throated blue warbler finding nibbles in the plants downstairs.
 



I headed off to a meeting and she heading off to find more bugs.

Bark eater

I've never seen this behavior before. The black and white warbler was chewing up this one tree, getting bark pieces onto the ground and eating them. I didn't move. You can't make an appointment to see this. Fascinating. Look at the feet, pollen toes?
 









Back up onto the tree to chew up more bark. Industrious female B/W. I may never see this behavior again.

Flitsky

How to go crazy, two kinglets working the back garden. Flit-around non-stop.
 






I adore kinglets, but getting a picture is hard work.

Up, down, all around


 I could watch the black and white warblers all day. They can stare down food invisible to the human eye.


Pretty female at rest.



Back to the food hunt.




Creepy crawlies under the leaves





That's all folks. Off she flew.
