How do you know that you are a real Atlaser? Do roads named Black Hollow RD, Hummingbird Lane, Shotgun Hollow Road, Frog Hollow Rd, Owl Hollow Rd, to name a few, grab you? How about those that have signs that say "No Winter Maintenance"? I get a flutter and wonder what I will find! I am rarely disappointed. This morning I was out on Ski Slope Rd in Saltillo CE -- a fav now with no winter maintenance-- and had stopped to take in the bird activity around me when something caught my eye. It was a Red-headed Woodpecker! One of my two favorite birds. Uncommon in our county so always a thrill to find one. It was busy catching insects and I saw no signs of breeding but who knows! I will be back.
I managed to upgrade in four blocks today so a satisfying morning.
