A male Common Yellowthroat holds tight to a cattail, his bright yellow throat and black mask framed by softer olive and cream feathers. Fine pencil strokes describe his rounded breast, while the warm paper complements the brown of his perch. With his head turned to one side, he seems poised to notice whatever moves nearby.
I hear yellowthroats every summer in a marsh near my home, but learning where to look for them took longer. This portrait offers the close, unobstructed view I so often hoped for—a chance to linger over the details of a small bird usually hidden in the growth below.
