The bluebirds are back! I was enjoying today’s warmth working in my “front office” (on the front porch) when I heard the distinctive burble of a bluebird. Grabbing my camera and long lens, I didn’t have to wait long before this pair came around to inspect one of the boxes we have in our front field. Hopefully they’ll stick around for the season!

You know it’s sign of a poor winter when even John is rejoicing about signs of spring!

Well if it ain’t gunna be winter (I’ve dubbed what we’ve just experienced “Novembril”), it might as well get on to spring!

Yup. Woodcocks are next on the list of harbingers. I’m expecting them any evening now…

Woodcocks on an evening in the early spring can be an otherworldly experience. Thank you for bringing that to mind!

Yes, woodcocks really tell me that spring is on its way. Then again peepers and wood frogs ain’t half bad neither…
