Many beautiful mornings are still in store for us before the frost really hits. The Scissor-tailed Flycatchers still bide their time, Blue Jays are still coming out of the neighborhoods to enjoy play time,
The Northern Reaches are still filled with life, assorted woodpeckers are preparing for cold weather
by seeking roosting areas, and other birds are coming closer to civilization where it is warmer, like the little Bewick's Wren. Large numbers of Northern Cardinals are choosing winter habitat, and the influx
of Double-crested Cormorants watch over Goose Island. Great Egrets are getting sparser, and assorted
hawks are peppering the roadsides waiting for tender morsels. With the change of seasons comes a
change of the cast of characters, so join me in biding our time while we greet new guest stars.
