Summer's End


A Nice Morning at Running Deer....but before that, a quick look at a Sharp-shinned Hawk from our Fifth Grade field trip to the ELC yesterday:



Not sure why he stayed put...maybe he found the 80 or so rambunctious 
fifth graders good entertainment?


Maisie and I had a quiet, beautiful Fall visit to Running Deer today. Very few 
residents presented themselves, but our first, an
American Bittern, was a wonderful treat!


Mostly Red-winged Blackbirds at Running Deer today, but a few others too:



Kestrel, unimpressed by my interruption of his hunt!


and a few basically skulky White-crowned Sparrows. I'd have expected
a lot more of them...maybe in the next few weeks?
