Fall Has Arrived

It is now officially fall and the leaves are certainly changing. Last week we headed to Presque Isle. I was hoping to see migrating warblers, but we saw nothing but a few mallards and plenty of ring-billed gulls. Instead we almost got eaten alive by mosquitoes and decided to never return in September.
At home things are getting lively. While the hummingbirds have probably all departed (we saw a straggler over a week ago and none since then) we are spotting more birds overall. My husband saw four flickers in our backyard at once and the blue jays are noisy and numerous. I also observed a red-bellied woodpecker yesterday as it pecked at our neighbors house. It won’t be long now until we hang up our feeders again.
