I have started trying out various hobbies in anticipation of retirement somewhere in the next 3-5 years. This month is bird watching although I am not great with using binoculars. They are trickier than they look. And a lot of birds look alike but I am getting the local hawk differences down easier than the little birds.
I am getting pretty good at some snakes as well. There is a "snake road" in the neighboring state where a lot of snakes can be found. The road is closed to protect the animals that make seasonal migrations to and from their hibernacula.
