"Winter's Dusk at Maple Cabin" |
Morgan Arboretum, December 21, 2023
Did a crisp solstice go-around at the arbo with Dan that ended at dusk. Arbo!Notable:
-16+ American Robins basking in the sun at Blossom Corner (Dan came up with the winning pun, ©™, all rights reserved)
-A V of small ducks zipped fast overhead at one point, headed towards the water – Green-winged Teal? Common Goldeneye?
-Four species of woodpecker, but no Red-bellied
-A steady trickle of Herring and Great Black-backed Gulls drifting towards the waterfront
-A pair of Northern Ravens doing some odd vocalization
-A goofy dog named Sunny that ignored her owner ("Can you grab her? Please?")
-15 species in two hours
