Nice Pine Warbler birds photography.

Thanks for your support..as always...yes, especially during Winter, duller colours and their being puffy, makes many of them a bit more difficult.
I think you might be right though..the beak has a bit of conical shape, but the breast is more white then usual....

I have a migrating pine warbler somewhere in my archives. I'll see if i can find it. Here it isIMG_20160714_153432.jpg

They are so pretty and you got great photos of them. Thanks for posting to #featheredfriends!
