Rainy/gloomy weather the last few days in western Pennsylvania, including yesterday at Moraine State Park for a quick “birding rest stop” on the way down to Pittsburgh. Moraine State Park – located off Interstate 79 between Erie and Pittsburgh (closer to the later) – features Lake Arthur, a designated IBA (important bird area).

Not a ton of nature activity, but still some fun sightings:








Despite the recent gloom, it actually dawned clear this morning in Erie County. ‘Fingers crossed’ for some sun today. Here’s the astronomical happenings @ 7AM:


Thie Team Member loves Lake Arthur….
Great shot of Jupiter!
Rock pigeons on telephone (?) line….a conflab of who did what over the past few days!
