January 29

I flushed a hawk as I entered the thicket by the casket company. Usually it’s a Red-tail who immediately flies off into the distance. Today it just moved over a tree or two and then I could see that it was this Cooper’s Hawk. A nice start to a walk. It was low tide so there wasn’t that much else to see but I did get to listen to a Downy Woodpecker pecking away while a flock of robins was busy in some tree litter nearby. A trio of Chickadees was busy making their chatter. So it was a sort of mini-orchestral performance. For a warm day in January it was a nice trip into the marsh.

Ciao!
