Today I scheduled a meetup with Graeme at Patuxent, and the rain began to fall as soon as I got a mile from home. Apparently it rained more West of here, but that brief shower was all we got. I went to Truxtun Park and Hillsmere Elementary instead. Terrible heat and humidity continue, fogging up my glasses and the viewfinder.

Skippers are not as gaudy as butterflies.
This juvenile Bluebird is growing some new feathers.
