I had a function to attend in Cambridge today, so I stopped briefly at Dillon. Except for a narrow ribbon of open water essentially following the flow of the river through the reservoir, it is frozen solid. Among the 150 or so Canadas resting on the ice, I spotted a single blue-phase snow goose. Otherwise, a couple of singing song sparrows, a single cardinal, and a few starlings were the only avian life seen. Driving back through, even the song sparrows and Canadas had disappeared, but I did see a gull sp, not well enough to ID. Disappointing day for birding, but a pleasant drive in the sunshine.
