My first post!

This is my first post, and I hope not the last. I chose this picture for my first post to remind people that nature is all around us, and that you don't have to go real far to appreciate its beauty. This is a Yellow-throated Warbler (Dendroica dominica), it is considered as a uncommon migratory species in Puerto Rico. I was very surprised when I saw this species of warbler, because I never expected to see it in my own backyard. So, this is the first place I recommend to all of you to go on a wildlife photo safari trip! Puerto Rico, USA, China, anywhere! You could be amazed of all of the spectacular treasures that you can find in your own backyard! I live in one of the most densely populated areas of Puerto Rico, cement all around, with very few patches of trees, but my 15' x 36' backyard was enough to attract this warbler. The funny thing is that a friend of mine, that I will not disclose his name (HECTOR), has been trying to see this species, looking in nature reserves in the coast and in different parts of Puerto Rico, and he only needed to take a train or a bus to my backyard and he could have seen it for the first time, sorry, I couldn't help myself LOL!!. So, the next time you go to the backyard, take a closer look, you might find some interesting and cool stuff!!
