Very few. I was surprised to see any at all. No problems with them |

Lower end of Nineteen Mile Brook had a gray thing (hat? scarf?) perched on top of a large weed or small bush on the right |

 | Comments: |
Fantastic, clear day for a hike. On Carter Moriah, nearly every evergreen was coated with ice on the east side, for spectacular frames and forgrounds for photography |
