Wait a minute, the Road Runner was a cartoon character…

“Road Runner, the

coyote's. after you.

Road Runner, if he catches you you're through”. ( just kidding)

Congratulations, I enjoyed your endeavors. Merlin picked up the Black Throated Blue , Black Throated Green and Black and White Warblers here in VT, frustrating not to be able to see them, as I am only a ‘spec’ on the forest floor compared to their singing

platforms high above. But it is still wonderful to know they join me , as I travel through the woods.

Thaks Lor. I love using Merlin though I have to check it visually--like with this morning's Tropical Kingbird...nope. But it did get the Rose-breasted Grosbeak!

Nature is where I go when life gets a bit weird...seems like I'm spending more and more time outdoors these days...
