I made a short trip down to the Kentucky-Ohio border to photograph some southern woodland species at the Shawnee State Forest. This area is sometimes referred to as Ohio's "Little Smokies". In April of 2009 a portion of the forest burned and was presently being logged. This disturbed area produced good shooting for Prairie Warblers.
There were a number of Yellow-breasted Chats in the same area but they were not very cooperative. Rufous-sided Towhees, however, were everywhere.
In the undisturbed parts of the forest Hooded Warblers and Worm-eating Warblers posed for the camera but Yellow-throated and Cerulean Warblers were tough to coax down out of the canopy.
