Another warm, humid one. Brought plenty of water for Jack, but still his harsh panting worried me a bit after a while. He was fine, I was fine—and the bird species we encountered seemed fine, too.
Still pretty quiet, what with this year’s immature bird crop learning the ropes. More species than yesterday, though, and a decent portrait of a catbird.
(Supposed to rain tomorrow—but not until after our hiking hour.)
