Day 19.129: Last walk

It’s over a week since the last of the spring bird walks. Here is some of what we saw:

Cooper’s hawk

Gray catbird

A big surprise - two little blue herons (albeit rather distant!)

Canada goose for scale

This young red-tailed hawk landed near us

Spotted something on the ground 

Caught it

Then seemed a little unsure what to do with it (you can see in this photo that it is a mole)

Chimney swift
