Much of this sunny day was spent on the road, driving to August for my doctor’s appointment, returning, doing errands, etc. The good news is that my thumb likely needs no surgery—or anything other than wearing a bulky brace on my left hand for a while. Woo-hoo! The bad news is that the Beech Hill birds late today were again staying out of view.

Still, they’re around—including a croaking raven.
