Phoebes are back. Yesterday - despite a diligent search - I could find none. Today along the West River there were at least ten. And there was a fox sparrow under my feeders this morning.
In the afternoon, raptors were on the move: 5 red-shouldered hawks, 1 Cooper's, 7 red-tails, 22 turkey vultures, 3 sharp-shinned, 1 northern harrier and 1 bald eagle went over in 2 hours. Also 13 gulls and a raven.
Eight skeins of Canada geese totaling about 300 birds went over while I was doing yard clean -up.
Spring is on the move.
