Fall has definitely arrived in E ID. 29° this AM & frost past two nights. Narrowleaf cottonwoods along the river & aspen up higher have started getting color. And brown trout are in their fall run on the Snake, my fave fly-fishing time of the year!
Bird wise: DE Juncos have started their winter arrival, White-crowned & Chipping Sparrows have been pushing through & a large kettle of Turkey Vultures came overhead a bit ago, headed South. As the BH Grosbeaks have all left only visitors past WK, to the platform feeder, have been local BC Chickadees, RB Nuthatches & House Finches. Did see a single Yellow-rumped Warbler come through yesterday.
