Acquire This Photo Species: Northern Parula (Setophaga americana) Location: Estes Park, Colorado, United States Age: immature/subadult Plumage: basic/non-breeding Activity: perching/standing Sex: --- Visibility: full body Quantity: single Photographer: David Seibel Date: October 30, 2011 Equipment: Canon EOS-1D Mark IV and Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L Megapixels: 9.0
Notes: This bird, likely a first-year male, was foraging among ground cover and in scrubby trees and shrubs beside a stream in downtown Estes Park. A Yellow-rumped (Audubon's) Warbler was nearby, but the two did not interact. It appeared healthy despite its atypical location (far west of its usual range) and the late season (the first snow had already fallen).
