Morning walks are rapidly becoming the norm as Spring continues to take hold. We are starting to get more “Spring” birds too. Pictured here are an American Robin and a Bewick’s Wren. Of course there are still some of the “Winter” birds around – mostly waterfowl as demonstrated in the mini-gallery below. There was lots of Starling activity today as nesting is on the top of the to-do list. Today’s featured image is another American Kestrel in flight – there were a number of them out today too.
