Black Snake at Bacon Ridge

For the last two years I’ve gone to the annual Bacon Ridge bird walk, and done very well.  It’s only open a few times each year, ad is a great place for birding.

Not so today. Warblers were in very short supply, and what little we found was far away and not very exciting.

A short walk in the ‘hood produced only a couple of bugs

I was lucky to get any shot at all of this Blue Headed Vireo, who was high in the treetops.
