I was sorry not to
have my camera with me on this morning's walk because the Fox Sparrows were
really posing in the Brian DeWitt Garden behind CMBO's Northwood Center today.
The feeders are full, the native plants still hold berries and seeds, and the
habitat was bustling with birds. The intrepid birders who showed up this cold,
blustery day were also rewarded with two handsome Canvasbacks and a beautiful
though half-hidden male Wood Duck on Lighthouse Pond.
