Honey Pot at dawn, Hadley, MA, Jan 29, 2014 |
Although it has been bitter cold once again the last few
days I have managed to find a few new birds for the year. I found a Red shouldered Hawk along Mill
Valley Road in Hadley on Monday and a Yellow bellied Sapsucker working through
some trees along King Street and Trumbell Road in Northampton on Tuesday. Both of these species were found in passing
without specifically looking for birds (but I guess I’m always looking). In addition I stopped at the Honey Pot
briefly before dawn on Monday morning and had a least one Short eared Owl
hunting the fields while on Wednesday morning I had two. In the evening on my way to Deerfield I
checked several fields in Hatfield but didn’t have any luck finding any owls at
all.

The reason for going to Deerfield this evening was a scheduled follow up ultrasound for the Wilson. He did well but was certainly happy to be home!
