Connecticut River Great Blue Herons
This afternoon, I had another chance to take a boat ride on the Connecticut River near Brattleboro, VT. We started by floating upriver to where the bald eagle nest is, but we only saw the adult flying around off in the distance, and the juvenile eagle remained hidden below the rim of the large nest.

As promised, I returned to the Monadnock Marketplace shopping plaza in Keene, NH this morning before work to explore a small body of water near the Target store that my wife and I jokingly call “Lake Target.” The sky was painted in long bands of pink-topped clouds that reflected the light from the rising sun […]
