(ID note: female Scarlet Tanager and non-breeding plumage males look similar except for darker wings on males. In the bird above, wing colour is intermediate, so not 100% sure on the gender.)
Here’s more White-breasted Nuthatch x Scarlet Tanager:
Distant but fun shots of a lovely Osprey:
Finally, a view of what’s presumably Lower Gravel Pit Lake, across the street from the fishing access ‘upper’ lake covered above and in the last post. Mainline train tracks at center horizon by the power poles.
