Plum Island

Early morning walk on the beach at Plum Island.

 Snowy owl at the edge of the dunes.
Hunters on the water shooting scoters.
Harrier inland hunting crows.

Millennium Park Snow Buntings

Millennium Park, West Roxbury, MA
A most gorgeous November day. Thought I'd take a sunny late morning stroll around Millennium Park. I won't lie--I'd heard there might be snow buntings.

It didn't take long to find them. I'd barely begun when a small flock flew onto the path about twenty feet ahead of me.

Why were they so attracted to the pavement?

Drinking water. They stayed for a couple of minutes. And then like snow buntings, they flew off all at once together.

Nice to have the snow bunting craving satisfied so early in the season....
