36 degrees
Breezy (chilly)
I took the afternoon off to take a walk at the beach. Before I left, I was happy to see that the Eastern Bluebirds were back at the feeder again. I missed them a couple of days.
I thought I might spot a Snow Bunting or even a Snowy Owl at the beach, but my bird sightings were limited to:
American Black Duck
Bufflehead
Canada Goose
Common Eider
Common Goldeneye
Great Black-Backed Gull
Herring Gull
Ring-Billed Gull
Rock Dove (Pigeon)
Song Sparrow
Any afternoon at the beach beats the same behind a desk regardless of the birds seen!
Powder Point Bridge (my access to the beach)
Pigeons
There are always pigeons on the bridge!

This duck was fast, and I kept missing her, but I kind of like this photo anyway. I think it is funny! Once across the bridge, I enjoyed a beautiful, but cold walk on the beach.
Song Sparrow
When I left, the tide was low. The exposed sand under the bridge had beautiful patterns. Also, there were chunks of ice which had broken away from the shore and were floating back out to sea.
