After all the excitement of yesterday’s airshow, everyone took it down several notches today. The wood ducks on the pond have not returned, and so are probably really gone until the spring, and I didn’t see either of the owls. Thank goodness for the great blue herons, or I wouldn’t have anything to show you at all.
One was resting on the far riverbank above the falls, perhaps with a belly full of fish, …
and the other was still fishing near our riverbank below the falls.
I did manage to glimpse briefly a few other exciting sights, such as a beaver and a muskrat on the river, but I failed to get pictures of them today, and that’s just how it goes sometimes. Wish me better luck for tomorrow.
Signs of Life in Estabrook Park 
Same here! We feed our birds at our place west of here in Nashotah on Moose Lake. They all seem to have disappeared in the last three days! We’re looking forward to seeing who does show up.
I have been wanting to email you for years. I really enjoy your superb photos and comments. Thank you for what you do.
We live here on the East Side and go to Estabrook Park often, especially the Bier Garten!
