Birds #2
Two ravens flew over the house this week. Heard the croak and noticed the more diamond-ended tail, as opposed to the fan-sweep of the crow. One of the ruffed grouse that like to frequent our house was spotted hanging out near the bulkhead. Also heard: the first red-winged blackbird of the year, a pileated woodpecker, the sleigh-bell jingle of a dark-eyed junco, and possibly the similar trill of the pine warbler.
