this morning at Springbrook

This morning I had to get over to Springbrook & see if yesterday's storm had caused any damage. Many leaves had been stripped from the trees and the ponds were full of water; otherwise, everything seemed OK -- except for the few birds. The warblers seemed to have disappeared -- I didn't see any ducklings or goslings or even deer. However, below are a few of the usual suspects.
