Sun and ice

December afternoon.

The sun came out today, and the water froze. Well most of the water—all but the patches that got to soak up the sun for a while. Saw a little flock of buntings at Beech Hill in afternoon. Also a pair of gulls. That was about it.

Lovely up there today, though.

Bird Report is a (sometimes intermittent) record of the birds I encounter while hiking, see while driving, or spy outside my window. —Brian Willson
