Notes

Sunny day with medium winds. Lots of songbirds & crickets could be heard in the marshes, and best treat of the day was watching what I believe was an Otter ( thought Beaver at first but too narrow a head and no flat tail showing ) swim along the creek towards the culvert while another dove under the surface before I could get a great look at it.
