Croaking

Saturday, December 26th, 2015
Winterberry, Beech Hill Preserve, Rockport, Maine, 26 December 2015.

Winterberry.

Sunny and chillier than yesterday. No bike ride today—but took care of a lot of overdue paperwork, got some type-design work done, and Jack was eager for a hike, so we went on one later in the day.

So did a ton of other people (and a few other dogs). I knew there’d be a crowd, and there was—but I didn’t know there’d be a guy sitting on Beech Nut’s roof peak. I called him on down, and he quickly complied.

Few obvious birds today on the hill today, but I heard a raven in flight croaking above my place in Camden.

Lovely one, all in all.
