An unusual visitor
Hello all,
Sunday was notable for my first autumnal sighting of American goldfinches in winter garb. I also had a nice sighting of several handsome cedar waxwings.
Monday, the talk of the Park was a great horned owl. The first word was near the "swampy pin oak," which meant nothing to me. Then I saw it just south of exit of Azalea Pond. This marks my second sighting in ten years. It looked like a sack of potatoes on a branch but even with contre jour lighting my binocular was able to make out the makings on its chest.
Today, rain kept me from the Park.
Happy bird watching,
Arthur :hi:
