Cutler Pond recap

Arlene was over to walk around Cutler Pond one day last week, I think Wednesday. We saw two ospreys soaring over the pond. The next day when I walked I saw one osprey in a dead tree near the far end of the pond. I was looking for a kingfisher that I had heard in that area, and saw the osprey before I found the kingfisher. I saw the osprey again today in the same tree. I don’t know if it’s the same bird or just a tree that has everything any osprey could ask for.

There has been at least one great blue heron either in the pond or the river every day I’ve walked the last couple of weeks, and a kingfisher pretty frequently. I sometimes hear the kingfisher but don’t see it.
