A stroll with Don

Don & I ventured out to see the beautiful blue day & check out what was doing on campus. We chatted about the woman who freelanced onto campus the trees that live here and visited a nifty area near the physical plant. We saw black-capped chickadees and juncos going for seeds, and we found a lovely hummingbird by his voice--he was chirping in the top of a naked fruit tree. We examined an old bushtit nest and then walked to the turkish fir, where we hoped to see a sapsucker. A goldfinch lit around a few branches, and we greeted it. Then we saw what looked like hawks wheeling high overhead. They were too far away to catalogue.
