After weeks and months trying to lure birds to my suet and birdsong bird feeders, this bird finally showed up. I had seen it in the neighbor’s bushes, but until recently wasn’t aware I had food he would enjoy!

With flitting warblers, and migration peak over, I was glad to get at least one good photo of this prothonotary warbler. The Audubon Field guide states this interesting fact: The name “Prothonotary” originally referred to a group of official scribes in the Catholic Church who wore bright yellow hoods, as this bird appears to do.
