Eye of the Towhee.
Got to the hill a little late this morning on account of a speaking engagement at West Bay Rotary in Camden, so the temperature had by then gotten quite warm, and birds were hunkered down. Still got quite a lively list, though. And encountered evidence that at least one nesting robin had fledglings.
American Robin.
Ah, fledglings.
