The second day, I drove up to the parkway again, before dawn, to see the sunrise.
 |
| Looking off of Pounding Mill overlook, relatively warm, and very silent this morning. |
 |
| This is looking back north towards Asheville, and the Pisgah Inn is reflecting the morning sunrise. The Pisgah Inn is a real jewel of a place, reasonable rates (set by the Park Service, I would imagine), real Southern cooking, and the view is spectacular. |
 |
A Dark-eyed Junco, the most numerous bird up at 6000' right now.
I saw a Ruffed Grouse on the side of the road, but the windows on Don's truck don't go down (!) and I missed him with the camera. I also saw a Pileated Woodpecker three times, but just couldn't get a photo. |
 |
| I believe, a Solitary Vireo, in Don's front yard at the DuPont house. |
 |
And, here is Don's resident Black-throated Green Warbler, a constant singing presence.
"Zee zee zee zu zee!" |
