Chuck-Will's-Widow (Antrostomus carolinensis)Observer
conhawnDescription
Kicked it up while walking through pine trees where it was sitting on the ground. A couple of the photos lightened the bird up more than it appeared in person. Unfortunately, a thunderstorm was moving in so I had to leave before I could get pictures in better light.

Female visiting Heuchera richardsonii.
This individual was distinctive due to damage to it's right antennae (best seen in image 3).
Photographs of another individual (or perhaps a composite of two individuals) were taken as they visited the same group of flowers: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/197869177

joshua_uffmanDescription
Noticed an all white bird at a distance in an open grassy lawn. Thought for sure it was going to be a Eurasian Collared Dove. Put my binocs on it and was surprised to see this leucistic Am. Robin. Next it flew to a tree and we were able to get closer for better photos.
