Hi All, I was back up in Wisconsin last week and managed to find time for some birding/photography. One really learns to appreciate all Wisconsin has to offer for birding variety and habitats compared to far southern Ohio. It was nice to be able to spend a couple of mornings at my old stomping grounds at Horicon. Nothing rare sighted.....just good numbers and variety of birds to be expected this time of year. Had some really nice light for photography as well. Hope to catch some of the migration in Wisconsin again this year.
