Quiet as the....
Yeah, so as you might have guessed, I’ve been riding low in the water with grad school application stuff again. But never fear! This weekend – yes, I say, this very weekend – yours truly is going on a little pelagic jaunt with the good folks of See Life Paulagics. My hopes are high for some alcids.
And then, in mid-February, after all the applications are in and around the time I start to go crazy worrying that I’ll be rejected everywhere, The Inimitable Todd and I have planned a little Valentine’s Day mini-vacation. Don’t worry, it doesn’t involve any cootie-related program activities*. It does, however, involve going to Amherst Island and Cape Vincent for three days of owling and other cold-weather birdy delights with Lakeshore Nature Tours. And possibly cruising back down via the Adirondacks looking for some of the mountain specialties, depending on the weather.
Plus, of course, I may actually go to the park or something again someday, who knows?
So at least you have something to look forward too.
*not that I’m going to tell you about, anyway.

Looking forward to the pelagic…and is that picture from the south end of Ridgewood?

It is indeed! Good eye.
Are you taking the LIRR out?

I took almost the same picture during the Queens County CBC.
No, The Birding Dude is giving me a ride…maybe we can get you back, at least to a subway? Though, really, it would be up to Andrew.
