Cloudy and threatening, with a 60% chance of rain.<br \/>\nI figured I&#8217;d be able to get a couple of hours in before the rain started, and it was a chance to try out my new flash, so off I went.<br \/>\nThe Prothonotary showed up early, which was good, because not much else was going on, and the rain started after about an hour.<br \/>\nI found a nice warbler at Truxtun in the early afternoon, along with a couple of other birds, so it was a good day overall. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/hughvandervoort.com\/?attachment_id=9628\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-9628\"><img
