Greetings Martin - We have Canadian jays (know by some as grey jays) at our camp in the northeast kingdom area of Vermont. This is the only area in Vermont that they live throughout the year. Many of these are banded by the audubon society members . We also have spruce grouse in this area . again, this is the only area in Vermont that we have spruce grouse inhabiting the forest. We have regular grouse and blue jays throughout this area and throughout the rest of Vermonts forested land. I feel like I'm at camp enjoying your work visits to your cabin. Our camp was built in 1953 when the original members tore down an old horse shed and camp used originally by logging crews up through the depression era. The camp heat and cooked meals are serviced by an old Glenwood (model C) wood cook stove. The stove has the warming cabinet above and a water reservoir for heating our water. Back in the 60's a wind storm ravaged some grain silos at a feed store and brought them to the ground rendering them salvage. The men obtained permission to salvage a section of one of the damaged silos (approximately 8' tall and 10' diameter) and buried it in the ground, drove a well point into the ground and installed an small gas pump used to pull water up from the water table and pumped up into an insulated storage tank in the camp mounted above the sink which then provides water dishes, drinking and other cleanup requirements by gravity. Hoping Jim is healthy and soon to return as we miss the camp duo. Hoping Vonnie is back to 100% and enjoying her summer. Thank you for sharing your time at the cabin.
