Misty for me

Sunday, December 4th, 2022 Alive 18,849 days

It was a foggy, depressing day so I went out to Turtle Bayou where I knew there wouldnʼt be any other people; and there werenʼt.

I did find lots of birds, though. I recorded nine new species for my list:

  • Golden-crowned Kinglet
  • Purple Finch
  • Winter Wren
  • House Wren
  • American Pipit
  • Eastern Phoebe
  • Ruby-crowned Kinglet
  • American Goldfinch
  • Yellow-rumped Warbler

There was also a metric ass-ton of mosquitoes. But thatʼs OK; the birds have to eat, too.

I thought about it for a while, and I think itʼs probably been close to 30 years since I was last bitten by a mosquito.
