Another hot and humid day. I knew I had to take Gabrielle (Our Cat) to the vet and go to the grocery store, so I got out early and stopped at Hillsmere Elementary, which is not far from the Giant. That was basically a bust, as it started to drizzle as soon as I got there. I did the grocery chore and went to Truxtun Park, where I got a few decent shots, but it was very cloudy and the Sun wasn’t very high, so I was up to ISO 800 on some shots.

Flicker

I thought this Flicker was feeding his young in a nesting cavity, as he would half disappear at times. Moving to the right, later, I saw it was just a fork in the tree.

Here you can see the view where it look as though his heads is in a hole.

Carolina Wren

Yet another cooperative Carolina Wren.

Great Blue Heron

Great Blue Herons always look very serene when they stand one one foot.

Robin

Robins have been very numerous everywhere I go, so it’s no surprise there are many juveniles.

Chickadee

This Chickadee was foraging at Ellen Moyers Park on Edgewood road in Annapolis.

Mourning Dove

This Mourning Dove is so sleek I wonder if he’s newly molted.
