bird photography : yellow-rumped warbler
$caption = "On a recent trip to visit John's parents in West Virginia, John spotted a bird with a bright yellow tail patch that neither he nor Beth could identify immediately, and unfortunately, John had not been able to get a good photograph of the bird, either. Beth's friend Adam quickly ID's the bird as a Yellow-Rumped Warbler, the most common warbler seen in the US, and on a subsequent trip to Huntley Meadows, John and Beth found an entire flock of the tiny birds flitting around a clearing--leaving the two to wonder how they'd missed seeing this beautiful bird before.";

However, John had time to set up his camera's tripod, making shutter-speed sharpness concerns largely moot.";
