Started the week listening for Owls in the early morning at Ninigret. Heard one Owl, but lots of American Woodcock. Went on to a few places in Wakefield &Narragansett. Just a few photos.

Sunday dawned foggy and drizzling, but it stopped and cleared in the morning. I went to the Great Swamp, which is far enough from the shore to be less foggy and is usually fairly birdy. Had a great session with a Carolina Wren & a few moments with a Red-shouldered Hawk, that are burned in my imagination. Had good luck with hawks this morning.
