Popple Island Wildlife Sanctuary is a NH Audubon sanctuary in Epsom , NH.
(NOTE: The map as of this writing does not show what we believe is a rerouted section.)
It's a pretty nice walk. We did hear a few birds and Merlin identified them.
But I didn't save the IDs , so if you want to know what's out there ... you'll have to go listen for yourself :)

So, time for another short hike. I've wanted to see what Avery was like for a long time.
Maybe today is the day?

Needed to get out and walk a bit, and try out my new spikes. Needed something short but not too long nor far away.
I visit Oak Hill fairly often and thought I'd change it up a bit by bringing my DSLR with the long lens and see what I could get.
Oak Hill has two good outlooks, each is toward Kearsarge and Cardigan with a bit different angles.
There's also a tower at the west end of the system, but I declined that today.
The trails are well traveled and well maintained, a pleasure to walk on.

The NH foliage tracker website indicated the Belknaps were likely past peak but possibly the Pawtuckaway mountains were a little less so.
Pawtuckaway is a little closer and not such hard work to haul a DSLR up, so I decided that was my destination on a very nice Tuesday.

I got a little confused by the parking sign, but parked in the field not too far from the first row of trees.
One of the things that made this an attractive destination was the viewing platform.
