Big, beautiful sky

American Robin.

Busy, kind of fun day. Worked on a font. Visited the neighbor’s sweet young female dog, took her on a little walk up the road and back. Went for a nice hike with Jack—which involved a long, engaging conversation with a friend. Also saw a double-rainbow and a lovely sunset. Took a couple photos.

Sundown (from Beech Hill).

On my walk with the neighbor pup, I surprised some doves and goldfinches in the area of a feeder. In the hardwoods above the little stream out back were a few of the usual woodland suspects. My friend at Beech Hill described a bird she saw—sounded to me like a Snow Bunting.

The sky on the hill was big and beautiful today.
