Scarlet Tanager at Jug Bay Wildlife Sanctuary

I had planned a trip to Jug Bay last week, but my roommate insisted on paying the rent and utilities, so I had to postpone ’til today (They open at 7:00 AM only on Fridays).
It was nasty hot and humid, but the light was decent despite predictions, so it wasn’t a bad day. I had hoped for more variety, but that will come soon enough.
