Field Ornithology Journal 4

Today is May 21, 2020. I went to Boxford State Forest in Boxford, MA and arrived around 7:05 AM. It was 48 degrees at that time and when I left around 11:45 AM, the temperature had risen to 60 degrees and sunny, with little to no wind. The trail I went on was dense forest with a mix of deciduous and coniferous trees, but about an hour and a half in, I arrived at a pond where I was able to see a lot more birds. I thought it was interesting that I heard and saw a lot of common birds and uncommon birds. It was also satisfying to recognize certain songs I did not know before without looking them up, like Eastern Wood-Pewee and Wood Thrush.
