This winterberry is in the meadow. Here are a few of the berries that can be found on campus.














These should be more orange in color.

Norristown Farm Park

The "birders" visited a new location for them, which was recommended by Ruth. It was lovely and I am sure we will go again.
This ground hog was seen from the car.

We walked up the road to the barn.

Path to the pond





Our destination was this beautiful farm pond, which has a blind near this spot.






The highlight of the afternoon had to be seeing a flock of ruby-crowned kinglets fliting through the bushes.

Entrance to the house. Photos were not allowed inside.
