Environment:
Start Time: 7:15 AM Temperature: 58 degrees Sky: Sunshine, no clouds, moderate haze, slight breeze.
Climate is staying very consistent. Another near perfect day for a walk in the woods. The Red-winged Blackbirds were today’s activity stars. Once again they were paying much attention to the sagging Wild Sunflower ex-blossoms. Today’s featured image (above) is just one example of the action. Plenty of Osprey about but apparently not in the mood to try a little fishing. I’m starting to see Wood Ducks along the Arkansas River again with one of them pictured below in flight. The other bird capture is posted here – a distant shot of a Great Blue Heron. I heard but did not see both Blue Jays and Belted Kingfishers.
