Saw an adult flying over the parking lot last weekend!

I was there and saw it, too, but I couldn't get through the crowds of photographers to take a picture 😁

My wife and I used to come up from New York to spend Christmas and new years walking around, bird watching, spotting seals, reading and sketching the landscape(me). There were almost no accommodations open, but while it wasn't very cheap, it was quiet, beautiful, and a lot less expensive than the summer. Then some travel magazine wrote about it being great in the off-season, and how you could get drunk on new years and walk everywhere, and all of a sudden it was filled with private planes and the rates went through the roof. We've lived in RI now for over twenty years and haven't been back to BI.

You use more lights at night, too.

Likely a juvenile. The first year males mostly are the ones that risk spending the winter up north. If it's a bad winter, with frozen ponds and few mice and other small rodents around, they could starve. But if it's a moderate or warm winter, they'll have a priority claim on good territory when the rest migrate north again.

I can't vouch for them, but I just found them this morning looking for a source for some sustainable plywood.

Boomers retiring to where it's warm. News at 11. Seriously, that's the only reason to move to the South and West. If you aren't old, you're just gonna exacerbate the drought/wildfire/flooding problems and live long enough that they'll kill you.

Well, it's not warm here now. "Don't like the weather? Wait a minute...."

Thanks! I don't know how to post links here!

It seems the setlist for that concert was: Carmen McRae

Lambert, Hendricks & Ross

Louis Armstrong & His All-Stars

Maynard Ferguson and His Orchestra

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

The Ramsey Lewis Trio

I got a couple of texts from Ashley Kalus. Blocked both numbers, for all the good it'll do.
