Common Yellowthroat (female).
Warm and gray this morning. Temps in the 60s (F) early. A thrushy sort of day—but one with a couple of interesting species (notably Black-billed Cuckoo and Magnolia Warbler). So muggy that the raven in the blueberry barren kept its mouth open to keep cool. And I fell in love with female yellowthroat.
Common Raven (panting).
Not bad for a humid morning.
