Yellow Rumped Warbler

We had a little bit of everything today:  grey clouds, breaks of sunshine, passing showers, but it was almost 80 degrees at lunchtime!  Shockingly warm!  And as you'll see from these photos, if you don't like the weather in New England, just wait a minute.

Back at home, it was a very "birdy" day in my front yard today.  The peach tree hosted Yellow-Rumped Warblers and Ruby-Crowned Kinglets, and the grapes were attracting Northern Cardinals again (up to 4 at a time)!
