Since our ponds lost their ice early on Monday, we've had a variety of spring
arrivals, including our 111th yard species today, a single American Coot. I had
to double-check my list because it was hard to believe we hadn't seen a coot
here yet!
We also had a pair of Great Blue Herons, a pair of Bufflehead, lots of Wood
Ducks and Gadwall, a pair of Northern Shovelers, a couple pairs of Mallards and
a single Ring-necked Duck.
I caught one of the resident pairs of Sandhill Cranes doing their dance and one
morning I saw a Sandhill actively pursuing a Red-tailed Hawk in flight...I've
never seen a crane make moves like it did that day.
We also have an occasional Turkey Vulture or two and one Eastern Meadowlark
singing each day.
Strangely we still have a handful of Dark-eyed Juncos!
