Despite the rain overnight, the weather this morning in Estabrook Park was almost a carbon-copy of yesterday: cloudy, still, warm, and dryer than forecast. The critters, however, were a bit scarcer, but that certainly could be simply because I didn’t have four additional sets of eyes helping me.
I didn’t see a heron at the pond today, but the wood ducks are still hanging around, and here’s a pair making the most of a dark and dreary morning.
There was also a female belted kingfisher, but she was wide awake and really made me work for even this mediocre picture.
Finally, at the river, I didn’t see an owl or osprey today, but the wigeons are still with us, and here’s the hen.
Lastly, with such a short post, I hope that leaves you plenty of time for any errands you need to take care of today. Best of luck!
