Who doesn’t like Magnolia Warblers?! I can’t imagine anyone who has seen one of these magnificent creatures not thinking they are spectacular. I have no recollection of the first Magnolia Warbler that I saw, but every time I get them in the binoculars, I still get excited. They aren’t that uncommon, but they are stunning little birds. That striking yellow-black combo with white highlights is about as pretty as it gets.

I’ve painted them twice before. The first was ages ago, a lone bird on a lichen-spotted Hawthorn branch. More recently, I included five Magnolia Warblers in a large watercolor of many bird species.
