Lassell Cemetery

It was warm and sunny today so I decided to bike the mile down to Lassell Cemetery to see if there was anything around. I had seen a Red-tailed Hawk on December 26, 2013 at the location and thought it worth a try to see if it was still there so I could add it to my year list, well it was! Got another year bird as well, White-breasted Nuthatch, heard only, though.
