Bobwhite update
No sign of the bobwhite this morning — that I know of. If anybody sees the little guy, let me know.
I am working on a story for The Record that should run in a Friday or two on what the experts suggest in situations like this. I know that the standard advice is to let nature take its course.
But in this case, "nature" involves a red-shouldered hawk, photographed two days ago.
Many mornings, the red-shouldered hawks commutes between snags at opposite ends of Parnell’s Path.
The bobwhite has been seen ….
… on Parnell’s path.
A little about the red-shouldered:

Note that the "Bob White" is listed on his menu.
Let’s hope we see the bobwhite this weekend. If I do, I’ll keep you posted.
