Pileated Woodpecker at Peters Reservation

I thought I'd explore yet another TTOR property, Peters Reservation in Dover, MA.  I didn't have a lot of time to hike, and I didn't print a map of the trails, so I just went out for half an hour and then retraced my steps.  Some spots of the trail were packed ice, some were muddy, others were wet.  It was a mixed bag!  I wore my Microspikes. The highlight of this hike was.....drumroll please.......my first Pileated Woodpecker of the year.  At least, I hope it is only the first one!  I love those birds!!!

 Skunk Cabbage - a sure sign of Spring
 (but not as nice as a crocus!)
