With one storm of snow and rain yesterday and another snow storm tomorrow it appears that winter has not yet decided to give up its grip just yet. I made it out for a short time midday to get in some fresh air between storms. A brief stop at Quabbin Park found a deer carcass out on the ice being picked apart by ravens and crows as a pair of adult Bald Eagles looked on from the nearby trees. Too far out for any photos. I next stopped by Covey WMA and spent some time around the Fish and Wildlife headquarters as well as a nearby trail. Still just the usual fare for birds but got some fantastic looks at several Red breasted Nuthatch's.
