Yellow Billed Cuckoo at Governor Bridge Natural Area

It was a cool morning with sunshine promised, so I put on a heavy shirt before leaving. I was determined to try the lake area this morning, but it was a disappointment. Birds were scarce everywhere, so I tried yet another area, where I got a little more cooperation.
I only had a short time for bug hunting, but I found a few good ones.

Brown Thrasher

This Brown Thrasher posed well, unlike many.

Yellow Billed Cuckoos are often elusive, so I was glad to see this one linger awhile.
