0.9 Mile Snowshoe at Mendon Ponds Park
Thursday, January 3, 2013
Headed over to Mendon Ponds near dusk to feed the birds... found the park very crowded. At one end there was a high school ski race going on - cars all along the roadside. And in most other areas more than a few folks out taking advantage of the snow to ski, despite the rapidly decreasing daylight.
We saw lots of deer on the move too, especially in the woods along the trail where we typically feed the birds.
Unfortunately - we must have gotten there too late and most of the birds had retired for the evening. Not one in sight the entire time we were there. Which wasn't for very long... it gets cold pretty quickly once the sun sets.
