Ovenbird (seiurus aurocapillus)

Habitat
mixed forest
Location
New Jersey
Date taken
Aug. 2014
Scientific name
seiurus aurocapillus
Equipment used
Canon 50d; 400mm f5.6
I see this bird, but only rarely. And it hasen't presented a good target for the camera very often either. This is a great shot! Nicely done!
 
Excellent work Teto, they are hard to photograph. Around here they are in the deeper parts of the woods, almost always in shade.

I've always liked these guys - they really look cute.

A super picture Tee - many thanks for showing him to us my friend.
 
A beautiful, sharp, detailed capture of this gorgeous little bird, Teto !!! Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend.
Best Wishes.
 
Oh yes, very thrush like in appearance, Teto. A lovely image.
