Big Rains

Wednesday, October 25th, 2017
Wild Turkeys, off South Street, Rockport, Maine, 25 October 2017.

Wild Turkeys.

We waited for a break in the rain. The wind did not abate. Heard a chickadee on the hill and caught sight of one Yellow-rumped Warbler. Spotted a sparrow that I couldn’t identify—which flitted away down the blueberry barren. Spied a swift, skittish thrush.

Elsewhere, I saw three crows, one herring gull, a small a flock of turkeys, and a large flock of starlings.

Still wet out there this evening.

Bird Report is a (sometimes intermittent) record of the birds I encounter while hiking, see while driving, or spy outside my window. —Brian Willson
