Morgan Arboretum, February 19, 2022
  Popped over to the arbo with Dan yesterday. First time we’d birded there together since 2014. Crazy. The time she flies.

  It was a perfect winter day, in my opinion. Not too cold, and mega snowy. Snow squall snowy. White-out snowy. 'Where are we?' snowy. Several dense and aggressive squalls moved through, and the birds noticed. As one large squall-wall approached, a group of about 30 finches took off to get ahead of it, followed soon thereafter by a Common Raven, American Crows, and a Red-tailed Hawk, that also seemed keen to stay out of it.
