Cascading Waters can be found at 135 Olean Street on the eastern edge of Worcester's northwest parklands, the Cascades. The Cascades are 350 acres of park and conservation lands along the borders of Worcester, Paxton, and Holden, Massachusetts. Home to countless species of plants and animals, the Cascades are open to passive recreation year-round.

Very cold

If you're going out today, this is a day to cover up all exposed skin; my face was quickly starting to hurt this morning while filling the birdfeeders.
Speaking of which, an update on that warbler from the weekend: it turns out that the black-and-white warbler is migratory. This time of year, they are supposed to all be in southern Florida and Mexico. No telling what it's doing up here, but we aren't the only ones to have seen them; one of the women over at Mass Audubon spotted one over the weekend, too. We're sending it in to the Mass Birds list.
At 9 am, it is 19 degrees and rising under sunny skies
51% humidity and steady
Barometer is at 29.83 inches and rising
Stream remains frozen (it's flowing in the middle, but the edges are solid).
More snow coming in tomorrow night!
