I thought maybe this was a new bird for me, but it turns out it is a Scarlet Tanager. She has VERY different colors from the male!

Couldn't decide which photo of this robin was my favorite, just chilling out by the pond.

Wednesday evenings nature walk was great, one of my Life List additions was this pair of Eastern Bluebids. So pretty, the male's back feathers are such a vibrant blue.
