At least one Kingfisher is back on the West River. Unfortunately it wouldn't pose for a picture.
Woolly Bears are on the move. Wooly Bears are the larvae of Isabella Tiger Moths. They overwinter as caterpillars and pupate in the spring.
A pair of Mallards posed nicely for a picture. Mallards are dead common and can be seen every month of the year, but the drakes are extra resplendent right now.
And, in sheltered, warm micro-climates a few Hepatica are turning their flowers to the sun. In a week or two there will be hundreds where today there were only a scattered few.
