It is feeling like mid-spring here.
The early red rhodie is now in full bloom.
And the native bleeding hearts are getting started.
I saw my first bat yesterday evening, although I haven’t been keeping an eye out, so they may have been here for a while.
I went out to listen to the spring chorus a few times last week. Here’s who’s around (seen or heard):
I was surprised not to hear any black-capped chickadees. Maybe they migrate, and I just never noticed, since the chestnut-backed are around all year?
It will be interesting to see who shows up in the next few weeks!
