I walked for an hour before work at Breakneck Hill Conservation Land. It was sparkling like a new diamond. Dewdrops covered everything. I tried and tried to capture its beauty, but you really had to be there.

Black-Capped Chickadee
After work, Freddie and I walked around for a couple of hours, hoping to see the Black-Billed Cuckoo. We heard it, but never saw it. There was plenty to entertain us even without the cuckoo.

Jack-in-the-Pulpit

So easily fooled! It's first of year Blue-Eyed Grass

Solomon's Seal
British Soldier Lichen
Indigo Bunting (female)
Not often seen! We heard her chipping back and forth with her mate and waited for her to pop up.
Indigo Bunting (male)
Green Lacewing
Cedar Waxwing
A small flock moved through the apple trees, finding plenty to eat.
The sky was so pretty as the day faded.
Good night, Breakneck Hill. I'll probably see you in the morning!
