From 1300-1400 today, the bird activity was just amazing. I stood at the kitchen window with it open and just watched in amazement. Sadly at that time, the sun had not yet made its appearance. Late this afternoon it finally came out so I am hoping for an amazing day tomorrow.

The Hooded Warbler has come off and on most of the day. I watched it around 1830 and was just sick it was too dark. I tried with an ISO of 3200 but the shots looked horrible. The best I got today was this one. Still lots of fun to watch it. At about this same time, an Ovenbird came in for a quick bath. I hope it will return tomorrow.
The big surprise of the day was when the female Chestnut-sided Warbler showed up and another also came in beside her. What a thrill!

Two female Summer Tanagers showed up at the same time too! I wish they would have sat together but one was in the bath and the other waited her turn. I really get a kick out of just how much they love the water. The one in this photo just sat in the bath for the longest time.
