A northern shrike
settles into an old nest...
Spring's return.

989: Need filled.

[The return of bird life after a hard winter and the finding of a place to nest are things bearing the advance of the coming Spring and Summer and the renewal of another cycle of life.]

The birds have been especially beautiful this time of year, especially the robins.

For me here it's the return of the gold finches. Those yellow and black boogers are eating 10 #'s of thistle a week. It's those signs that warm the heart. Love it!!

Aurora: Well, I haven't seen too many besides the ones that were around all winter (sparrows, magpies...). Although I did hear a bird the other day that has a morning song that I hadn't heard since last summer. :-)

Floots: Welcome back...cheers!

John: Thanks.

Pat: Boy, I wish a bird around here would eat our thistles (I have weed 'em). :-) Thanks.

Polona: Thanks.

Pamela: Here are some links:
