The Spring Migration is Here!

Boy, things are changing fast around here now! I haven't written in a while, but the weather over the last couple of weeks has really warmed up. As a result, there is more and more open water every day and that is attracting many geese, ducks, and eagles back to our area. It sure looks nice to see them return! Of course, we're expecting freezing rain, sleet, and snow later today, so winter is not giving up just yet! But, seeing the birds returning in such large numbers is a very welcome reminder that spring is on its way.

I would encourage everyone, no matter where you live, to get out and enjoy the arrival of spring. You might want to just take a short drive in the country to see which birds have found their way back. Or you could spend a few minutes outside in your yard listening for any birds that may be singing their spring songs. Believe me, after our long winter, it feels good to get outdoors!
