At the Park

We went to the park today, where we saw this killdeer and her little speckled eggs. We also saw (and heard) a large male red bellied woodpecker and an Eastern bluebird. Considering how noisy we were, I felt lucky to see much at all!

Almost Time for Hummingbirds!

In an act of faith, I hung the hummingbird feeder today. I think my feeder was up a good month last year before I actually saw any hummers visit it. Hopefully it won't take as long this year!

This map is a fun reference to watch the hummingbirds' migration.
