Another warm one—60° (F) to start. A bit of a breeze (unfelt in the woods, but present on the open trail), and not a lot of action, bird-wise.
I got a look at only half of the twelve species on my list today. Most notable might’ve been the little flock of Snow Buntings flying over. Otherwise, a raven, a couple-three Brown Creepers, a bunch of crows.
Tomorrow early will come a total lunar eclipse. Thinking Jack and I might climb the hill early to get a peek at it. We shall see!
