Black-capped Chickadee.
Foggier’n hell today. Which is oddly comforting—and not just because that means it’s still scary warm for late-December. Or not so scary. Just odd. Unusual. Therefore more interesting than typical weather. And interesting is nearly always a good thing, no? (Trying not to think of that Chinese curse.)
Late, muddy hike. A good one. Four bird species (half of them seen).
Including a curious chickadee.
