Male prothonotary warbler, Protonotaria citrea in breeding plumage.
I went out this morning specifically to see if I could get a good image of a prothonotary warbler and I managed to get one.

That's the loveliest yellow I ever did see.
Saw one of these pretty yellow fellows flitting around last week when I went on a boat ride at the Pascagoula River Audubon Center in Mississippi. It's a hyper little bird, and yes, a beautiful yellow.
