Solitary Sunday Birding on April 5

Since the Sunday Birding Group has been suspended by Coronavirus quarantining,  I headed out to Quidnet on my own on Sunday at 6:30 am.  So many deer are visible at that time;  I saw 8 during my outing.  I am used to seeing vernal pools in Squam Swamp and the moors,  but there were pools also at Sesachacha, between the path to the pond and the dune.  Two black ducks flew off when I approached.  Osprey, Eiders, Scoters, and 4 piping plovers were the highlights.
