Walked up Mitchell Canyon to Deer Flat today; the weather was sunny and eventually got up into the 60s.
The birds were very loud all day, especially in the parking lot, but on up the road as well, with multiple species all singing on top of one another.
About 11:00 it warmed up enough for the thrashers to fire up, and at one point we had at least 4 singing loudly from both sides of the road.
Also, there were several species of butterflies foraging on the road surface out beyond the first bench.
It was absolutely delightful.
