The Union Springs Special.... John went down to the bank about 1:45 this afternoon then stopped by the Rte. 90, Mill Pond, duck/owl box (on the Howland St. side). He squeeked & instantly a gorgeous, fluffy head appeared at the hole!! He brought me the car so I could go look at "our" little cutie. This is the 1st time I ever saw the sharp talons hanging onto the edge of the opening. This is the hi-light of the day!!
Last evening I saw what looked like the "flag" of a deer bounding way out back in the hayfield. It was actually the female Harrier hunting & I was seeing the white rump patch.
