 My partner and I took a trip to the [Mason Farm Biological Reserve](https://ncbg.unc.edu/visit/mason-farm-biological-reserve/) the other day, and what a glorious day it was. This year, I've been quite busy in the lab, and missed a lot of the early spring warbler season, so I was very excited by the opportunity to check out the old stomping grounds.

 I brought the camera with me despite the fact we were going to be there around midday when the birds are much less active. I'm glad I did, because I got the best look at a common yellowthroat I've ever had.

 Normally these guys are flighty, staying close to the ground in small brush or tall grasses, but this one was putting on a proper show for the mating season. Even when you get a glimpse of one, it is usually just that, as they have jumped away before you can pull out the camera, taunting you with their [iconic call](https://ebird.org/species/comyel#Modal-playlist).
-{{% /sidenote %}} I was very pleased to capture a few choice shots of the bird. Hopefully there are more to come. While we were out, I also got a nice picture of a hermit thrush and a king snake.
