We walked to the end of Seneca Road yesterday. It comes to an abrupt end in the parking lot of the Newport Marina. When we first moved here there were all sorts of funky homes down here, some only seasonal and some abandoned but the neighborhood is moving on up. We found a brand new home next to last year’s new home at the very bottom of the hill. Ice still covers the bay but it won’t last long in these sixty degree days.
Today we walked to the end of Hoffman. one of our favorite walks. The marsh that looks so forlorn in the winter is starting to sing with birds. Peggi opened her Merlin app and in the first minute she recorded a Red-winged Blackbird, House Sparrow, Downy Woodpecker, Mourning Dove, White-breasted Nuthatch, House Finch, Black-capped Chickadee, Northern Cardinal, White-throated Sparrow, Red-bellied Woodpecker and a Blue Jay.
