Migration


On the last trip down the park road at East Harbor State Park in Marblehead, the were several geese and a few visitors like myself. No matter what time of day you go to this park, there are always at least a few folks driving or walking to get their nature fix. On this trip in, on the northern pond (Middle Harbor), there were hundreds and hundreds of lesser scaup ducks. They were in constant motion and a welcome sight. Nature is still on its loose schedule and the migrators are beginning to come through. In these crazy times, watching the predictable web and flow of nature is reassuring. The ducks are calm, relaxed, and doing their normal thing in their normal time frame.
