Lazy Summer Birds And Birding

So far in July it has been mostly 95 degree days and torrential rainstorms. That's not my cup of tea.

I managed to get out to a local park and caught a Belted kingfisher in between raindrops sitting on a wire. She must have been as lazy as I was because she didn't fly off like they usually do when they see me. I haven't actually been birding in an active sense all month but have been enjoying the backyard and garden. I'm hoping for that birding spark once again. Probably when the temperatures drop down a little.
