You’d have to be an optimist to go out on a morning like today. Cloudy and threatening, with a 60% chance of rain.
I figured I’d be able to get a couple of hours in before the rain started, and it was a chance to try out my new flash, so off I went.
The Prothonotary showed up early, which was good, because not much else was going on, and the rain started after about an hour.
I found a nice warbler at Truxtun in the early afternoon, along with a couple of other birds, so it was a good day overall.

The Prothonotary Warbler is an absolutely shocking yellow when seen through the lens.

This looked like an older bird teaching a youngster to fish.

This female Cardinal struck a nice pose.

Indigo Buntings are still singing..

I found this Carolina Wren deep in the woods.

This Goldfinch showed up when I was about to quit for the day.

This Black and White Warbler was very cooperative.
