The good weather had me dithering about where to go, and I settled on returning to Wooton. I know there’s a some good birds there. I didn’t find the Warblers I wanted, but I did well enough.
In the afternoon I went to Truxtun Park and found a few bugs.
Eastern Cardinals are now nesting in the park.
This Red Shouldered Hawk put on a good show for me.
Eastern Bluebirds are thriving everywhere I go.
White Eyed Vireos are still treating me well.
Blue Gray Gnatcatchers are busily building nests.
It’s been a while since I’ve seen a Chipping Sparrow.
This Tufted Titmouse posed very boldly.
This White Throated Sparrow is staying late into the season.
I’m not seeing as many Yellow Rumped Warblers as I’d expect.
This Swamp Sparrow is in breeding plumage.
Today’s bugs.
I found this little guy under a log.
A few local flowers.
