 Song Sparrow.
The day started sunny but developed a hazy overcast. Had an early disappointment which left me despondent for a while, but I got over it. And Jack and I had a good late hike.
 Bee.
Might get some thundershowers tonight.

 Northern Bobwhite.
A lovely, busy, sunny day—topped off with a Beech Hill hike. Windy, though, and I heard few birds above the leaves—but at the summit, following a sudden call, I caught sight of my first Maine quail.
(Certainly an escaped bobwhite, but still.)

 Gray Catbird.
Cool and overcast here today, a long day of work with a short, sweet hike at the end of it. And on that hike, I had a chance to watch a couple pair of catbird parents feeding their secret broods.
