Note

Zack bumped into this nest out in the woods, in the crotch of a branch at about 6 feet up in a very slender chestnut sapling. When I got there, the mother had returned to the nest, so I observed more social distancing, but could still see the mom and the nest, and remembered seeing a similar nest about 20 years ago. Thought for a bit about what kind of bird it was and remembered that it was "solitary", and after a bit more work confirmed that it is a solitary vireo. But not so fast. They are now called blue-headed vireos, according to the internet, although my bird books are old enough that they use the old name. The whitish eggs with the brown dots are classic blue headed vireo eggs. The other appears to be from the dreaded brown-headed cowbird, a bird that wastes no time building its own nests, or rearing any young. A pretty unfortunate situation for the poor vireo, who is none the wiser.

Our last outing with Tullio for a while, as he returns to Italy on Wednesday. They will have a difficult re-entry - mandatory in-apartment quarantine for 14 days. While Italy is opening up, they have some strong controls on travelers arriving from the US. During the walk we saw this painted turtle with her butt in a freshly dug hole, presumably hiding some eggs.



Also a lot of bird life in the new forest starting up, and a bald eagle flying overhead.

Note

Here is a mouse of some unusual size who had been feasting on the cat's dry food, more or less under the cat's nose. Caught him in the have-a-heart trap and here he is after being evicted outside. Thought about taking him to the fire swamp, but let him go in the small clearing on top of the smaller clearcut.
