Yellow-rumped Warbler.
I don’t mind hiking on a slightly rainy day. I don’t even mind hiking on a moderately rainy day, frankly—but not when I’m carrying my camera and expensive binocs. Today was only slightly rainy, though. At least it late this morning was when Jack and I hit Beech Hill. And I must confessed that that was because I checked the weather radar and saw heavier rain approaching, so…
O Canada.
Still a riot of yellow-rumps up there, and again with kinglets (well, one) among them. A dim day, a damp day. A little chilly.
I dug it. I guess I’m something of a rainiac.
