| The juncos have left and the spring/summer visitors have arrived or are due any day.
Meadowlarks have moved back into their high rise vacation home: the top of one of the power-line-poles, a very safe place if you fear predators Bluebirds are checking out accommodations, they have a choice of two dwellings, take their time to make up their mind The green heron is strolling along the pond's banks, looking his usual grumpy self Pielated wood-pecker attaching the other power-pole, his drumming can be heard a long way Quail pairing up, so are the wild turkeys The tanagers should arrive shortly Season is defiinitely changing |

| Yep..............our juncos have gone as well. White crowns are still around though. Wood thrush and brown thrasher have made their appearances near my kitchen and woodpeckers of all descriptions. Saw a black and white warbler yesterday. Hummers should be showing up. They're always here by when the azalea bloom and they've been blooming a week. |

| The birdies are busy arouund here also. I can't identify them by name, but they are back. It's nice to see the cycle renew itself. |

| Some of the birds have already their young ones, only the weather don't play along. At the moment I use more birdfood than I did in winter. |

| Lilo, reading your post made me miss living in the country. I even miss the Blue Heron though he made himself welcome to the fish in my pond every day. I miss the Woodcock that used to follow me around the garden. I talked to him a lot and he must have liked the sound of my voice. Shoot, I talk to all my critters. |

| Hi Janis - I talk to all my critters and to some either seen or unseen - heck, I talk to inanimate objects and get responses, just have to know how to talk to them, some need to be cussed and some need to be charmed |
