The marvellous weather continued today. I arrived at the lake around sunrise, but it was almost a total bust. I quickly moved to the lower field, and it was the right place to be. Warblers were in every area, though not in large numbers. Magnolias continue to dominate.
I made a quick round to find some bugs, and a scary looking spider stole the show.
Carolina Wrens were very active today.
Catbirds are still present in every area.
Flycatchers are also easy to find.
Magnolia Warblers are still passing through in sizeable flocks.
Red Bellied Woodpeckers are fun to watch.
This first year Blackburnian Warbler was being chased by a Magnolia Warbler.
I tried to get a better angle on this Broad Winged Hawk , but I scared him off.
This is one of the biggest, baddest spiders I’ve ever seen. Yellow Garden Spider
