More Summer Fun

 

It’s the Dog Days of Summer.  Still, there’s plenty of good birding to be had.  Just keep the birdbath clean and full and see what comes to call.  For instance, this female Painted Bunting made an appearance at a friend’s and posed for photos.

You might keep an ear peeled to the sky as well.  Friends and colleagues are reporting Uppies (Upland Sandpipers) overhead headed south.

So, don’t put away the binoculars or the camera.  And if you need some good optics, consider this.
