TUESDAY, AUGUST 8:
This morning was my last one here in Idaho before my flight back to NYC (and eventually onwards to London), so I took Caroline and Ann on a walk out Warm Springs Rd. A few birds were present such as WILLOW FLYCATCHER:
We made it to Dollar Lake which was gorgeous as always and a delight for them to see:
A GRAY CATBIRD was also present at the lake:
This male LAZULI BUNTING, my bird-of-the-day for today, was a pleasant sighting on the walk back to the condo and it was great to get Caroline and Ann on this beautiful bird, as well.
Then, it was time to drop off Caroline and Ann at the ski lift for their day on Mt. Baldy and my turn to get to the airport. It was wonderful to have you with us this year, you two~
Thankfully, my flights to Denver and Laguardia ran smoothly and I was able to net window seats on both which is a necessity for my sanity on airplanes. 
Next stop: NYC for a night to record with a composer and former professor of mine from MSM, and then off to the UK to sing on tour in the great cathedrals of England: Westminster Abbey, Ely Cathedral, Lincoln Cathedral, and Liverpool Cathedral!
Hopefully, I will fit in one or two mornings of birding there and will eventually get around to updating on here, haha!
Happy birding,
Henry
