It has been cold and clear. We were not sure if we should go to the refuge or not. However, after discussing the upcoming weather, we decided this would be our only chance for the next few weeks. A storm is coming in at the end of this week and then there will more then likely be fog.
The weather was a crisp cold, not even jack frost was out it was so dry. It was eerily quite. I have never heard it so quiet out there. The ducks, geese and small song birds must still be down south were it is a little warmer. There was a significant amount of ice all around. We did see a number of eagles, mostly at Tule Lake.
Petroglyph point had no owls or hawks perching on the many ledges or cavities. Ususally you can catch a glimpse of a barn owl, but even they were not peeking their heads out into the cold sunshine.
I look forward to returning in about a month.
