Our warmer than normal fall conditions have continued into this week with highs getting into the 70's on multiple days. We had a brief cool down early in the week with some frost and northerly winds which brought in the first real push of waterfowl but the cool down was short lived. The warmth should stick around through the weekend into early next week before a pattern shift brings in some rain and cooler temperatures. I have enjoyed the last few mornings exploring a variety of spots including Arcadia and Silvio Conte NWR-Fort River. Lots of sparrows plus some lingering warblers have been in evidence both mornings.

At home the activity at the water feature continues to drop but I nonetheless managed to add another species...a Winter Wren.
