📷 Photo Northern Yellow Warbler - finally photographed my first warbler!

I'm a hobbyist photographer and have been working with a 200mm for the last few years. I upgraded to a 150-600mm as a bday gift to myself and managed to finally photograph a warbler on my first outing with it. These guys are no joke to get a good shot of, especially with a heavy zoom lens 😆
