Today, at the end of the day, at the summit of Beech Hill, coming around the corner of Beech Nut in the chill air, Jack and I spooked a flicker. Not sure what it was doing up there on the porch of the hut with all that snow around.
Speaking of snow—this much of it makes for an interesting vantage: essentially, I’ve been looking at the natural world from the point-of-view of a man at least seven feet tall.
