Surprisingly—considering the day was cold and the winds were high—I have quite a few species on my Beech Hill list from this morning. Notable were the nine bluebirds flying around up there (got photos in the scrubby eastern trees, in the lee) and a solitary Yellow-rumped Warbler.

Lovely mix of sun and clouds today.
