END OF THE MIGRATION

The migration is about over for Cedar Ridge. The last of the sparrows have passed through, that being the American Tree Sparrows. Winter has set in, although the calendar tells me it is fall.

I have been neglectful of my blog since September... I have been editing thousands of photos and making greeting cards for various individuals. Winter should provide more time for posting various birds and animals. In the meantime, I will post these photos of the last couple of months... I hope you enjoy them.

    Hey Dave,
    I think my dog and I met you in the woods above the hardware store the Monday after MEA weekend. I was the one that frightened you with the shotgun blast when I was up on the x-ski trail. Soon after we parted I did come across a grouse as you may have guessed.
