Rainy again. Cold again. I think maybe it never reached 50 degrees (F) yesterday, after all—mainly because my fingers didn’t get quite as numb during my afternoon hike with Jack of Beech Hill today as they did yesterday, and the today the temperature only reached something like 46. I understand that’s a record for coldest high temperature.

 

More birds on my list today, though. Maybe because it’s a full moon day.
