Day 7.181: Lighthouse, Mockingbird, Windjammer Bagheera

After work and before dinner, we had a short outing to Fort Williams Park where we saw...

Several birds, on land, air and sea including the Northern Mockingbird pictured twice below which sang an amazing range of songs as it perched at the highest point of the pine trees and kindly flew around a bit flashing its wing patches and making it rather easier to identify.


We also saw the lighthouse of course - looking very elegant in the early evening light and this old sailing boat - a windjammer (as Exile #2 remembered) called Bagheera (as we were able to read by zooming in on the bottom right photo and trace back to Portland Schooner Co.).
