Petersburg State Game Area - 17 Jun 2025

At the edge of the woods the Indigo Bunting began singing again and I was able to locate it in a tree to my right. It perched and sang for several minutes as I snapped away with the 600 f/4 Sony lens.
I then drove back to the Teal Rd. parking lot to see if any activity was afoot. Besides a noisy Gray Catbird I caught the raspy calls of a Yellow-throated Vireo from the trees next to Teal Road but they stopped as soon as I walked back to the road.
