Late September at the Park


 When I left this morning we were socked in with fog but the sun soon burned it off leaving a beautiful misty morning. While I appreciate so many people enjoying the metroparks  there were way too many people there for me today. (they scare the birds off...except for the Chickadees who are little beggars). Any way, it was lovely there and I am happy to say that I walked a mile and felt pretty good.....yea!

 Alvin
I call all chipmunks Alvin

 This guy was making such a racket.....I guess that's why they call them "chip"munks

 Beautiful Bluebird



Was stumped on this one so I sent the pic to Paul at Lake Erie and he ID it as a male Scarlet Tanager in winter colors. I never would have guessed as I thought that a male Tanager was red all year round. Thanks, Paul! I will always be a rank amateur birder.
