I stepped away from the feeders, which were bustling with the usual suspects, and took a quick walk to Little Merganser Lake. The birding activity was nothing to write home about, or write a blog post about for that matter, but the fall colors were pretty spectacular.

It was in the 30s this morning. The water in the birdbath was frozen. Later in the week it is supposed to be in the 70s. That’s New England for you.

Here are a few iPhone photos of the walk. The top picture is a panoramic, which is new to me so I hope it looks OK. The last one is me looking to see if any migrating ducks have arrived yet. I’m still waiting.
