Once again, life determines when one birds since it was awhile since I did any serious birding or blogged. C'est la vie.
So I decided I would walk the trail (Blue Trail) around Burr Pond at Burr Pond State Park. I've been to the beach area once before but that was all.

| Even More Ice |
Knowing I was going to start birding at noon
and that is was near the end of November, I wasn't expecting to see much in the way of birds so I figured I would just see what Burr Pond had to offer.

After walking the trail, I have a feeling that this may be a good place to find warblers, vireos, towhees, etc. in the spring/summer due to the varied habitats I saw - areas with low shrubs, a power-line right-of-way, running water, and of course the pond to name a few.

What really surprised me was all the ice I saw! So I decided to take pictures of any bird I could, plants, ice, and whatever interested me.
