An early afternoon walk up Signal Hill in Lebanon, was relatively quiet due to the mid-summer conditions, but it did not seem to interfere with the noisy Wood Frogs in the vernal pools along the ridge trail. Note: Wood ticks were out in force already. Red-shouldered Hawk - 1 gliding above upper meadow S-N , fortunately alerted me to it's flyby with a couple distinctive calls. Eastern Bluebirds - pair @ hedgerow between lower fields, in close proximity of birdboxes. Storrs Hill Lebanon Eastern Bluebirds - 2 in different locations on hill.
