Yellow-rumped Warbler

This is one of the latest Yellow-rumped Warblers that I found at Buena Vista Park , just before the weather started to turn quite nasty.
This morning it was almost freezing and actually felt like -5° outside.
I've already prepared the backyard for the inevitable snow that we will be getting either this month or the next and set out a large platform feeder made out of an old coffee table top, that I will cover to protect the seed when the time comes.
Visitors this morning included 2 Blue Jays, a Male Downy Woodpecker , a Black-billed Magpie, a House Finch , two Pine Siskins and the usual 40 or so House Sparrows.

I love the way the background is a nice muted yellow.

Love the shot. This is definitely a Season's Greetings card if I ever saw one. :-)
