Texas

The really cool thing about black and white warblers is how they behave.
They don't perch, or hop from branch to branch. They land on the tree trunk
and crawl around like a mouse exploring a maze. They have just the right
combination of mass, strength, and fingernails to make it look like gravity
does not apply to them.

They don't hold still for long. I was lucky to get that picture of him I
sent a couple days ago. Most pictures looked more like this one.
