With just a few less clouds this would have been a perfect birding day. Low humidity and temps in the high 70s made for a great morning at Wooton. Butterflies are still feeding like mad, and a few birds posed well.
Every plant with a blossom had one or more butterflies feeding.
Yellow Breasted Chats have stopped singing, but they are still present.
This Common Yellowthroat kept a caterpillar in his beak for several minutes.
This may be a first year Common Yellowthroat .
No sooner had this Red Shouldered Hawk settled in the dead tree than he was mobbed and driven off by a flock of Crows.
Indigo Buntings are still singing loudly and often.
You can’t go far at Wooton without hearing a Catbird.
Downy Woodpeckers often let me get quite close.
