Yesterday was a cool morning followed by a day of downpouring rain. In the morning we saw a few deer, cardinals, mourning doves, the Snowy egret was in her usual spot. I did notice where the Pileated woodpecker have moved to since the babies are now out of the nest. I also noticed a Red-headed Woodpecker which my bird book says is quite rare in the Northeast. There is at least one alive and well living on the Beaver pond. I am heading out this morning with the camera to see what I can find on a cool morning. There is never a quiet moment.
This past saturday I saw a snapping turtle in a field and where at first I thought she was trying to move away, I soon realized she was preparing to lay eggs. I looked yesterday and there is a "nest" now in the spot.
