Connecticut for a change

Writer's picture: Barbara SeithBarbara Seith

Off to Connecticut today to have lunch with my friend Theresa. Stopped off at Hammonasset to do some birding (after I did a little birding in RI). My goal was to get a photo of the American Bittern that has been hanging out there. I actually got photos of 2 or the 3. Ironcially there were two photographers set up on the edge of the pond, clearly waiting for the Bittern, but when I saw the birds, I was on a walking bridge and the birds where not in view for the photogs -- who had clearly been waiting a long time to see them.


Not sure if I've shared this, but often when I'm driving around listening for birds, Merlin tells me it hear an American Bittern -- when I play it back, it is me making a weird throat noise -- apparently I do that a LOT while driving. I used that unique ability to try to summon the birds today -- and it appear to have worked. Who knew..
