I had an hour free in the afternoon so I stopped at the Fox River Sanctuary in Waukesha. It had a nice selection of warblers but not a lot of numbers of each. Warblers species seen, Blackburnian, Cape May, Yellow, Tennessee, Nashville, Magnolia, Chestnut-sided, American Redstart, Black-and-white, Blackpoll, and Northern Parula. They actively feed along the river. It was a cloudy day, mild temps in the mid 60’s, little wind. Images were taken on May 13, 2018.

Great pictures Jim!
I recently saw this Sanctuary on a map of Waukesha and thought I should visit it. Now I definitely will do that after seeing your spread of beautiful pictures !
Awesome pictures of these magnificent birds. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing. Love your photos!
That’s a great place for spring birding. I had well over 100 warbler individuals there a few days ago.

I really appreciate all the views of the birds you photograph. As a somewhat novice birder, it really helps me to make some of my own identifications. Bird guides don’t show as many angles.
Many thanks for sharing your talents.
Wow Jim, Nice selection and great images. Where the heck is the Sanctuary??? I looked on the web and the information is ambiguous.
More of nature’s beautiful jewels! Thanks, Jim.
