I had my first Blue Grosbeak and Magnolia Warbler of the year singing in the yard this morning. I also heard a Eurasian Collared-Dove calling softly from the row of Loblolly Pines east of my house. I've still got numerous White-crowned and White-throated sparrows coming to the feeders. A few will hang around for the next 3 weeks or so but they'll slowly start declining as the depart from now on. Summer residents are arriving daily as winter residents slowly depart - another spring is in full swing! I also had my first Fish Crow for my yard on Saturday. Yard bird #111.
