This (10/19) marks the latest on record for a first freeze atop the Mountain! 
The previous record was October 6th (2018), so this smashes the record by 13 days!

New Cardinal in October!

                                 

We used to have frosts by now, and I recall snow on October 4th in 1992. 

But this year we have had a number of baby birds being fed

by their parents in our yard.  Surely a sign of global warming.

Leaving the Mainland

 

Lighthouses: Burlington, Vermont

These two lighthouses mark the breakwater at Burlington, so boats don't hit it.  They work great.  The one silhouetted at sunset used to have white siding all the way down.  When Irene struck Vermont, Lake Champlain rose so high that the siding was ruined up to the point you see it missing.  It was decided to leave it that way in tribute.
