A nice hike around the Moose Hill Sanctuary this afternoon/evening yielded few birds other than future winter residents. I saw one Brown Creeper, which is always nice, and a couple of migrant Ruby-crowned Kinglets and Yellow-rumped Warblers in with the usual Chickadee/Titmouse crowd. I will do a full post tomorrow afternoon…

Here is that landscape again; I worked on it a bit more. The drawing is about 5 x 7 inches, pen on gray paper:

Inadvertent or incidental birding: a wave of migrants came in to the yard behind the Visual Arts Center this afternoon:
Golden-crowned Kinglet (1)
Yellow-rumped Warbler (3)
Song Sparrow (1)
White-throated Sparrow (many)
White-crowned Sparrow (1 juvenile)
Dark-eyed Junco (many)
There were two groundhogs out, eyeing me balefully. I think I drive them nuts, always skulking around after everyone is supposed to have gone home.
