After 3.69 inches of rain yesterday, there appeared to be a small window for today but it was small so I kept it local and kept it close to the car and went to Allsopp and Knoop Parks this morning. Between the two, I birded for 2.75 hours and about 2.6 miles. I got two FOS birds: Painted Bunting (one 1st year female) and Golden-winged Warbler.
