Welcome to Today at the AHATS Wildlife Observation Area (formerly TCAAP Wildlife Viewing Area.) I've been visiting this small park regularly since 2008. This is a log of all the wildlife and nature I experience nearly every day.

Today Near the TCAAP WVA, I Saw Deer
I saw maybe four different groups of 3-5 deer today near the TCAAP Wildlife Viewing Area. I surprised this one in the pine trees.
In my quest to find owls, I actually got out of the truck and strapped on the snow shoes. Five steps into the pines and one flew off. Didn't get a shot.
Saw two different dark-morph rough-legged hawks and two others, either light-morph and/or normal.
Did not see a single turkey, which was weird. Their tracks are everywhere.
Nine swans again in the pond....and a jillion mallards.

Previously Near the TCAAP WVA, I Saw Blue Sunrise
Not really. I had the white balance set to something else, not sure which, so it brought out all the blues. I liked the colors so I kept the shots.
Here's closer to what it really looked like:

Today Near the TCAAP WVA, I Saw Turkeys Roosting
Roosting, not roasting. I made a drive through near the TCAAP Wildlife Viewing Area this morning before I met the family for lunch. I saw two separate groups of turkeys still in their night roosting trees.

Previously Near the TCAAP WVA, I Saw Tree Sparrows
Lately, I've been seeing a flock of about 40 or 50 American tree sparrows near the TCAAP Wildlife Viewing Area. I find it fun to watch how the grass bends when they land on it. They are also a bit feisty sometimes.
