 Good afternoon, all!

Happy first day of Spring! It was pretty cloudy and windy this morning, but the 
sun seems to be peaking through and the singing of the Northern Cardinals can 
be heard through the gardens and trails! North Pond is definitely active with 
Northern Shovelers, Blue and Green-winged Teals, Cinommon Teals, Fulvous and 
Black-bellied Whistling Ducks, Lesser Scaups, American Coots, Least Grebes, 
Great and Snowy Egrets, Neotropic Cormorants, and the Green Kingfisher whom 
ocassionaly flys by the overlook making it's way to dragonfly pond, it's 
favorite spot. 

The Dragonfly Pond has been active with some warblers, including the Wilson's 
Warbler, Yellow-rumped Warbler as well as the Clay-colored Thrush, Great 
Kiskadee, Ruby-crowned Kinglet, and ocassionally has some Snowy Egrets stopping 
by perhaps searching for an easy meal! 

With Spring here, the grounds are looking georgous! Come visit us and see!


Have a great afternoon!
