Halloween tease

[ribirdnerd]

Now that the sun is setting earlier and earlier, my after work birding options are limited. 

I took a dusk walk to the pond where I heard 2 Great Horned Owls and saw several Bats catching insects! The Mute Swan family and some Mallards were on the pond too.   Our driveway Turkey family continues to visit along with the usual Blue Jays, Cardinals, House Sparrows, Mourning Doves, Chipmunks and Squirrels.

Bummer. Yeah, it's limiting my yardwork time, which is especially frustrating for lack of rain so I have to keep watering things.

Yay! I've seen a few bats this summer, but not as many as last year.

That's good to hear.
