Drawing the yellow warbler from the photo was a challenge for me.  I wasn’t sure where to begin.   I thought with the bird, but found myself focusing on the branch and foliage.  Had difficulty with sizing spacing on my page. Tried painting, but think layering colors is needed and figuring out what colors to mix to get desired hues.  Drawing from photo was easy as the subject stayed in one place. The colors of the stems leading to the leaves would not have been notice without drawing it. Details are key to drawing I think.
