Another foggy morn for dog and me—thick fog, moisture-laden air, a soggy water world. I don’t mind the fog, even have come to take it as a challenge to manage to take a decent photograph.
Today’s was a cooperative Hermit Thrush, whining its alarm call on a branch in the woods just in front of us.
I loved this foggy day.
