Wacky Weather
From 20 degrees Friday night to 67 degrees this afternoon. When I went out for a walk this afternoon, it was actually too warm for a jacket. But the thing I find strange is that there are still so many oak trees around with mostly green leaves. Surely this is very late in the season, no? And particularly after the several hard freezes we've had recently. And it's not just confined to my backyard microclimate - I noticed the same thing yesterday at Ellanor C. Lawrence Park, and Saturday at Sunrise Valley Park.
I'm still seeing some nice birds in the backyard, but not as many as when I last posted. There's a brown creeper around almost every morning now. When it turns cold again, I'll put up the suet feeder...
