On one of the trips to the ice pond during our recent stay, we caught up with the blue heron who has been hanging around. As we approached the south end, we saw him fly north from the little causeway section just past Van Winkle’s property. We thought that would be the last time we would see the bird for the day.
As we did our own hanging around, we spotted him on small dock midway along the pond below the Allyn property.

New hydrants awaiting interment
They work from 7am to 4pm, more or less. The noise is a continuous mixture of backing up trucks and tractors – beep-beep-beep; pounding from the rock breaker piston machine – BAM! BAM! BAM! : really loud at two whacks a second for minutes on end.
