The train platform I stand on every morning overlooks an estuary. I love watching the birds as they return after winter. About a month ago sunrise and my train-time coincided and the estuary was teeming with early morning bird life. Abizella had been talking about doing some bird watching and I knew this was prime-time! I grabbed my greatest bird enthusiast, and we made a morning of it. Abizella takes after her mother in her love of birds. Not only does she love to watch them, but she loves to sketch them.
If you look closely, you can see the cormorants standing on the poles...
We had a fruitful morning....
Cormorants, yellow buntings, snowy egrets, chickadees (the state bird, Abz pointed out!), seagulls, turkeys, terns, and ducks!
