Hey everyone-

I opted for some easy birding today at the Liberty Dam Bike Trail from about
4:45 pm to 6:30 pm, not expecting to see anything of much importance or
interest.  However, at the top of the hill, about 40 yards past for the sign
for the shooting range, I was treated to some amazing views of a stunning
male Pine Warbler in bright sunlight, and was able to get some quick shots.
 The bird was not in the pine trees on the right side of the road, but was
foraging at the base of the deciduous trees on the left with groups of
Titmice and Bluebirds.  Here's the complete list:
