Weekend_walk1.species7

All around a decent start to my weekend walks around campus. Started with hearing a large amount of northern mockingbird calls, one of which is seen on my observations. I spotted my first Atala, sitting up in a treetop. I came to the unfortunate find of a dead Common yellowthroat, most likely dead from impact against the window it laid next to. I had spotted some white ibis walking further out on a distant facility, while I listened and attempted to spot a catbird that was calling. Upon my enter into the botanical garden, I was greeted with a Northern Cardinal and an American Redstart, neither of which I was able to get a good picture of. It ended off on a quiet note with a species of orbweaver I cannot identify that had made its web between 2 trees.
