Curiosities

Posted on February 15, 2023 by Richard

Now that birding has slowed, with many of the winter denizens still delighting us, it’s a chance to think about past adventures. Most of us, when we bird, love to observe other things — for some it’s plants or butterflies, for me it’s unusual stuff along the trail. Here are some items from this Fall.

Needs a little TLC
Fancy trim – a long way from a road.
Beavers worked hard night after night to plug this culvert. Town employees removed the branches and next day, replaced.
Cellar hole of first homesite on this trail.
Ginger checking out a historic marker on a East Montpelier trail.
Trees sometimes have a challenge to set out roots in rocky Vermont.
This shack reminded me of some of the mysteries stories we watch. Turns out to be an old hunting camp.

I guess I should include a bird photo so here’s one from a cantina in Columbus, New Mexico — one of dozen on a “pollo” theme.

    You have an eye for the unusual, sir. Strong winds have made birding difficult here in the Lower RGV.

      Dan, where are you? I’m forgetting how we know one another. I hope you have a good spring birding – won’t be long for you.
