Eastern Gray Squirrel (Sciurus carolinensi)

Not all things living in the trees are birds.

After watching and photographing the antics of the White-throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis, I returned to Trolley Track Trail and headed west.

I noticed that the further I walked from the Pipeline trail the less I heard bird song. I paused when I arrived at Founders' Walk. Except for the wind in the trees, it was silent. I would have sat at the bench and relaxed a bit but I was still on a hunt for warblers.

I decided to return to Trolley Track Trail for one last chance to find warblers. I looked up at the sky, admiring the way the branches, some now covered with small flowers, seemed to reach for the heavens.
