sights bog side

Mt. Tom in the distance

grasses caught in the tree during the flooding

The flooded bog road. Yes that is the road.
The waters here were 4 ft deep a week ago.

gray morning in the bog, lots of bird calls and some birders in.
The red winged blackbirds, ducks and geese along with the woodpeckers 
were all making a racket.



BARBED WIRE ALONG THE  ROAD OLD PASTURE - 

Nasty stuff, barbed wire was used for a reason.  Fencing now not as harmful.
Tacked into trees, the trees eventually grown around it, 
but the wounds in the tree often
brought in disease and rot.  
Many of the trees die.
