Red-winged Blackbird

It was a joyous sound, the song of the red-winged blackbird that greeted me early this morning at the FWG. It is the first I have heard this year. Spring really has arrived with these cheery and hardy birds. Even if it snows, even if the temperature drops again, it won't be long before spring comes to stay!

!!!! What a happy sight !!!! I can't wait to see/hear my first of the season. Looks like spring is going to give winter a big ol' kick in the rear the next couple of days with the forecasted high temperatures. Soon bikes and butterflies will be on my mind!

Happy news Christine, thank you.
I very much look forward to their sound.
Spring has sprung and me & the birds know it.
