I know there was concern from the development in Mexico in the area of their wintering grounds. J.B. Sunday, September 24. A rainy and foggy, but perfectly usable day for walking and seeing Nature in the earliest fall. At long last the blueberries are gone. But other flowering shrubs are in fruit, offering patches of color in the gloom.
Acorns abound under the many oaks on Mount Desert Island.
Now some of the ferns show browned fronds, indicating scattered frost has reached the island. F.W. Monday, September 25. We have certainly enjoyed the bluebirds this year. We are still seeing them and are wondering if they shouldn't be heading south. J.B. Tuesday, September 26.
