Fledglings

Saturday, July 1st, 2023

Foggy again. How many mornings in a row is that? Wait a sec, lemme check… appears this was the seventh day. Not that I mind too much, since the birds gotta make a living regardless. (As do we all, I suppose.)

Highlights of today were the alarm notes of a Wood Thrush, the song of a cardinal, the flushing of a woodcock—and the fact that there are fledgings everywhere these days.
