Winter Routine — pat morss Posted on January 30, 2024January 30, 2024 by patmorss Things are slow as we all settle into the winter routine. Stripes of reeds, gulls, ice, and open water at Niles Pond. Only one day of adequate ice for skating so far. A USCG cutter tows F/V Orion, with a dead engine, home into Gloucester at dusk. Color at dessert time on the suet sideboard. Here are the RED, … … the WHITE, and the BLUE. This Red-tailed Hawk is such a regular, I think we should name him or her ‘Randy.’ “Randy Red-tail. I love it. I’m so proud.” Deer foraging for a late dinner, next door on the frozen ground. “I’m the leader of the pack” – the first coyote is already down the path and on the rocks. “I’m the defensive one” – the second coyote sees me, when at the top of the path. “I’m the red one” – the third coyote just follows the others, often trotting to catch up. “I’m the timid one” – the fourth coyote retreats back up the driveway to find a safer route. Winter days often end with a unique sunset, here featuring the Boston skyline. Rate this:Spread The GMG Love By Sharing With These Buttons:TweetEmailPrintWhatsAppPocketRedditLike Loading...
