From my kayak 9/27-10/24

Jane. Connecticut River. 10/21/24

We got out a few times in October, before the weather turned too cold. We saw some of our usual suspects: Common mergansers and mallards, loons, blackbirds and kingfishers, a hawk or two, a painted turtle and a beaver.

We also found a few interesting things: rocks that look like elephants, a large black ball with a handle, a log that looks like a wolf. The foliage turned colors and the leaves fell. The mornings were cold and the valley was full of fog.

Most of the birds have flown, and the kayaks have been put away for the winter. It was a good season.
