American Tree Sparrow.
Busy days, mud and rain, dim light—all that adds up to not a lot of great birding. Or photo opportunities. I did, however, see a little flock of American Tree Sparrows at Beech Hill today during a lull in the precipitation. So much rain has fallen in the last twenty-four hours that the trail had a few minor washouts. Not that the many lingering chickadees much seemed to care.
Tonight it’s still 39 degrees (F). Warm compared to recently.
Who knows what tomorrow will bring.
