Orchard Oriole at Governor Bridge Natural Area

Another near perfect weather day, and I was back at Governor Bridge shortly after dawn.
It was a bit dark yet, so I spent some time capturing bugs and flowers saturated with dew.
I spent two hours looking for birds, which were plentiful, but not in the mood to pose.
I finished up with an intensive bug hunt, and did well enough.
