Wildlife in B-town and above Jack's pond

Marsh hawk just outside of Marsh's supermarket in Bloomington yesterday morning (while Jim and Wilma and Diane did the shopping, I wandered around outside just to see what I could see). Must have been marsh hawk day as earlier I saw one in the trees above good neighbor Jack's marshy pond not too far from our east window. Jim said he saw an owl above that pond a little while later and we know that a great blue heron has been hanging around there these last several days - I've spooked him when heading out on a walk. Glad to have the critters in the area - on the hunt for snakes and mice and other small living things on their breakfast menu.
