The perfect weather seems to have ended for a few days. I nearly went back to the truck for my gloves after half an hour in the windy cold at Patuxent.
The Rusty Blackbird was a n ice surprise, but migrating birds seem to be passing us by for the moment.

This Great Blue Heron was fishing quietly in Cash Lake.

Tree Swallows saved an otherwise dreary day.

It’s not hard to find a Bluebird at Patuxent.

I didn’t recognize this Rusty Blackbird at first.
