At a local park today, there were quite a few robins hunting for worms in the grass. I spent about 15 minutes trying to get close, and capture a photo at the moment they flew away. Though a bit out of focus, this was the best shot I got.
It seems the phrase “like a duck to water” is appropriate during the bitter cold too.
Just as long as they can still find some open water.
I saw a lot of turkey vultures at Wyalusing. They’re large birds, with wingspans up to 6 feet.
I went to Olbrich Gardens yesterday to find some proof that spring was actually happening (more on that later). First thing I saw was this hawk, hanging around one of the ponds.
There were quite a few people around, watching. I was amazed how close she was letting us get — hawks usually aren’t this tame.
I went eagle watching along the Wisconsin River today.
I had no idea the jet was in the frame with the above bald eagle, until I got home.
