The Cascades are 350 acres of park and conservation lands along the borders of Worcester, Paxton, and Holden, Massachusetts.

Birds are back

We saw our first juncoes back this morning: they're the gray groundfeeders you'll often find at the foot of a birdfeeder. They travel together. I don't know where they go in the summer; we only see them in the winter.

At 9 am, it is 29 degrees and rising.
55% humidity and falling
Barometer stands at 29.85 inches and steady
Fire danger is NONE with no rain for some time
Stream stands at 4.8 inches, which is down a bit from earlier in the week.

Hydrological intern Jason was out in the chilly stream this morning, measuring flow rates!
