Maybe your post will solve the mystery!

By the way my Cooper's Hawk photos for my post last year on March 18th were taken right there where the trail starts by the utility building. Next week's post will most likely also be about a <br />Cooper's Hawk I saw this weekend.<br />I hope to see you both again somewhere on Union Bay.Larry Hubbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346591926338103362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7340068615976654326.post-49851041276267309792013-03-10T14:47:03.972-07:002013-03-10T14:47:03.972-07:00Thanks for posting these terrific photographs.

My husband and I were in Yesler Swamp on Friday and passed a guy with heavy duty photo gear...wonder if that was you? We loved watching the mergansers fishing, and you captured their craft beautifully!

With the help of readers I have learned that the Yellow-Rumped Warbler with a yellow throat is the Audobon's and with a white throat it is a Myrtles, but that would still make them both Butter Butts. :-)Larry Hubbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346591926338103362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7340068615976654326.post-10286751963800754282013-03-10T00:30:41.879-08:002013-03-10T00:30:41.879-08:00Great pictures as usual.

It makes for a more streamlined duck underneath. Yes I do believe you have a Yellow Rumped Warbler otherwise known as a Butter Butt as seen in the last frame.
