Summertime

Yellow Warbler, Beech Hill Preserve, Rockport, Maine, 13 July 2023.
Yellow Warbler.

Another warm and humid morn, but not quite as warm or humid as yesterday. More like a nice, deep summer day on the coast of Maine—although, of course, it’s not yet quite deep summer. Still, dog and I enjoyed our familiar hike, and I listed a good number of bird species.

Nothing quite as “exotic” as yesterday’s woodcock, but a singing Yellow Warbler rather summed up the feel of this lovely day.
