Yellow-rumped Warbler.
Another rainy morning, but Jack and I managed to miss most of it early. Our hike was marked by wave upon wave of Yellow-rumped Warblers—scores of them moving through. Also vireos, sparrows. And a Wilson’s warbler that posed for a moment not ten feet from me, but with the dimness (and my one-handed camera grip) I didn’t manage a photo.
Oh, well.
