Howard Community College, Columbia, MD, 2023-01-01
Howard Community College has a beautiful campus with a trail that circles two ponds, the track, a garden, and a grove of trees which includes one of my favorite trees. A building is under construction and the cement mixers were blocking my view! The tree has also had a limb break off, so I was…
Patuxent Research Refuge – South Tract, Laurel, MD, 2022-12-29
We took a very short walk at the Patuxent Research Refuge – South Tract. The trails were closed for hunting. The majority of the trees were bare and perfect for photos. Lake Reddington was frozen which made a nice backdrop for the lonely limb sitting on the ice. Patuxent Research Refuge – South Tract, https://www.fws.gov/refuge/patuxent-research,…
Patuxent Research Refuge – North Tract, Laurel, MD, 2022-12-14
We ran into an opossum at the refuge. I thought it was cute, but my friend does not agree with me due to the fact that apparently they are a nuisance around near her house. I am not saying that I want it for a pet. π

Patuxent Wildlife Refuge – North Tract, 2022-01-02
We walked for 2 miles during this visit. The weather was balmy at about 60 degrees, considering there is a winter weather warning for tomorrow. We saw a bird which was either a crow or a raven. The calls that it was making were very prominent. Most of the time we don’t pay attention to…

During this visit we walked around the trail. The Great Blue Heron was in the pond. The weather was nice. But most importantly I got to try out my new camera. Snapshots below.

We havenβt been to Howard Community College for a walk recently as there is construction in their parking lot near the track. So we just go when when know the visitors parking wonβt be in question. With that said, we went for a walk there today and saw what we believe is the same hawk…
