Little Signs Of Spring !


Headed out early to Gate 43. The plan was to sit at the horseshoe dam in hope that the otters would fish the open water. The plan worked out well,but nobody told the otters. A male and female  Hooded Merganser kept me occupied for a while.


Squirrels both red and gray where out and about. I did see one mature and one immature eagle on my hike. I also saw one Pileated Woodpecker and heard several others. As I crossed over a small beaver pond  there was  a visible hole and a number of chewed branches sitting on the edge of the ice.

The morning was made with seeing a male bluebird.
