ROUTE TAKEN: Tidmarsh, from t he parking lot on Beaver Dam Rd, walked main trail through park. in Miles Standish, starting from the trailhead for East Head Pond and walked around the pond
TERRAIN: Tidmarsh - generally flat, with some morains with views of the brook; mixed vegetation. Miles Standish - flat terrain in a mixed pine barren and deciduous forest.

CONVERSATIONS: Had interesting conversation with ranger in information center - we talked about pine barren habitat, forest fire past events and present threats, other subject matter.
EXTRA NOTES:
This bird flew across the view, landing somewhere on the opposite side of the fmr bog.. I could hear it give its one syllable call just as it disappeared.
This bird circled over our location and the woods nearby several times before finally moving on. We had a good look at it.
Found many frogs, both adult and tadpole, in a pond within Tidmarsh Wildlife Sanctuary.
I'm not sure at all what kind of fish these are. They swam up to us as we were looking over the pond to view the bullfrogs.
