I was prepared for a day off this morning, but the predicted rain didn’t materialize, so I went to the local parks. By the time I’d spent a couple of slow hours looking for birds, the Sun came out, so I went to Governor Bridge in hopes of better luck.

While it was somewhat better, there still isn’t any great concentration of migrants.

I spent an afternoon hour looking for bugs in the ‘hood.

I spent 15 minutes waiting for a decent look at this White Eyed Vireo.

The flowers are nearly the same color as this Cardinal.

I liked the pose of this Chickadee.

I walked up the hill to find this Eastern Phoebe.

This Common Yellowthroat landed quite near me.

Today’s bugs.
