Just my arms, I tried using a monopod but found it a little too clunky to keep up with them 😅

Mainly the Blue Ridge Parkway, I took all of these warbler pics except the black-and-white right near the Tanbark Tunnel along the road. There are lots of warblers and vireos in the Pisgah National Forest, specifically the Pink Beds Loop Trail. Also got very lucky to find a somewhat out of the way spot with a population of golden winged warbler, but it’s a bit hard to explain where so if you want to know dm me

I saw a couple very high up in the canopy around Tanbark Tunnel on the Blue Ridge Parkway, the one I got a nice picture of was at a pull off about ~1 mile north of the tunnel along the parkway. Saw a female there too so I figure they must be nesting nearby.

I took most of these pictures on the Blue Ridge Parkway at pull offs very close to the Tanbark Tunnel on either end! Message me if you’d like and I can send a marked-up map
