What a great day to be outdoors! I walked from Violette's Lock to about a quarter mile past mile marker 23 and back (11:15-12:20) There were snow flurries the entire hour.
On the river:
Bufflehead 5

Hughes Hollow:
When I arrived a Great Blue Heron was gliding in through the snow flakes from the northwest.
I was there from 1:00-2:45. Snow flurries and two snow squalls. My preferred weather!

Brown Creeper 1
Carolina Chickadee 5
Yellow-rumped Warbler 1 ( walking on the ice)
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker (heard in the conifer grove)
