HARBINGERS OF SPRING

 

A bit past sunrise this morning, I was outside preparing for the tree trimmers and I heard a RWBB call from the wetlands to the east of my house. Only in recent years have I begun to grasp that the Red-wings are among the earliest species to return, much earlier than the Robins. Also, I noticed that the crocus and daffs have poked their heads up in the front bed that receives a lot of warming sun. The snow is pretty much gone except for those areas shaded from sunlight and the parking lot piles. 

Yay!
