Today was the Solar Eclipse. I knew there wouldn’t be much to see in the way of views with all the cloud coverage, but I took a walk anyway. I drove to Woodland Hills Preserve which is mostly open fields and wetlands. The red-winged blackbirds are back in full force and the cherry trees are blossoming. Totality was approximately 3:20 PM EDT. The sky became dark, and I was able to capture just a slight glimpse of the eclipse with video shot on my cell phone. Not much in the way of views, but it was still an enjoyable time.
