Colder today, upper 40's. Very sunny though. The sunny parts of track 
are closer to 65 F. Just stepping under a bridge where there's shade and 
usually breezy gets the temperature down to 40s again. This sun is very 
intense.

I saw 10 anhingas this time, same place. On coming back 8 of them were 
sitting up there, one was in the water and one flying, exhibiting that 
same white band that goes all across from one wing to the other.

I used to see three very tall and very old CH guys almost every day. But 
in the last few weeks been seeing only one of them and not every day. 
Today I started one hour earlier and saw the two tall ones that hadn't 
seen since before Christmas. So they do it earlier in the day. Once it 
becomes part of one's life, one does it every day. It becomes harder not 
to do it than doing it.

Chink was there too but didn't see the Beaner and the old Black woman. 
Last time I saw the Beaner was a few days back and this time he actually 
waved at me! After almost 2 years. Job promotion? Was high on something? 
Have no idea. The Chink hasn't waved and doesn't seem to want to. He 
shows nervousness when passing by. Or it could be the Chinese way of 
respect towards others, minding their own business. But I still give it 
a chance that he probably feels others hate him for being Chinese for 
Covid reasons.

In the weeks before Christmas many new faces showed up every day and 
became very tentative candidates for becoming "the regulars", but my 
hunch was correct in that it had something to do with Christmas fever 
(they were all women) cause I have seen not one of them one time this 
year. It must just have been hormones and nothing else.

I've also been seeing the homeless guy with the dog. He seems to appear 
only during coldest times. Even in the middle of cold days when a few 
days of warmth sets in he disappears. It might have to do with what he 
probably hunts for food. Different fauna at two different places during 
different ambient temperatures. I've not seen him in summers. So by all 
probability he has a second spot elsewhere for warmer days.

I have noticed a certain brown colored caterpillar during the past cold 
days on the track. Have no idea how they survive the cold and why they 
are around when most leaves are rotting on the ground. Is that the same 
colored dead leaves that they eat which gives them the color?

When passing close to the gun range a lot of high powered rounds are 
being shot. The way they shoot such expensive rounds gives me the idea 
that "we the people" are paying for them, not their own money, you know, 
like those grocery carts that have a mountain of groceries of all kind 
piled in them and when you look at the young woman pushing it you tell 
yourself not a chance she is spending her own money. I get the same 
feeling when I hear the way they shoot those rounds.
