Another slow week it got better on Thursday when the rain stopped, and it got cold. I wanted to go to Lee County...so on the way I stopped at Bethany Cemetery.
I heard a Red Bellied Woodpecker and other birds foraging.
And then he flew down on the ground with a Yellow Shafted Northern Flickr
They hung out together and flew off together also....And there was a lot of Eastern Towhee around males and females...
There was White Throated Sparrow also...here is a female.
Then I couldn't take the cold wind much longer my fingers stopped moving... so I got back in the van and headed to on a wetland nearby.
On the way out this Northern Harrier was riding the wind, and looking for a meal...
I scanned the lake and saw a flock of Ring Necked duck along with some Canada Geese...
And some Yellow Rumped Warbler in the trees,
And although it looked old, I found some Beaver Chewed wood...with teeth marks...see in the middle of the wood.
but no beaver....
and a nearby horse farm that was all closed down has been purchased and now there's horses there again they all had on their blankets against the cold wind...
I was hoping for someone to get this place and finally it's in good shape the fences mended, the weeds gone, and horses in all the paddocks.
A Turkey Vulture watched me,
And an Eastern Bluebird perches nearby...
But I had enough of the cold wind so home I went I hope to do more exploring tomorrow...AND ground hog day is on the way Im not ready for Summer but Spring will be nice...
PEACE
Every day is a new Adventure.
