April can a be a bit of a slog for some of us (mud… warm … cold … more mud), but we have the treat of early migrants and brightening feathers and spring blooms!

Noisy Wood Frogs, busy Chipmunks, and some nifty Sparrows!
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
We love sharing
birds with you.
We had a relatively cold stretch of weather this January, which can lead to extra activity at the feeders. Perhaps that explains the one unusual sighting?
December had moments of excitement with two unusual birds (unusual in that we rarely see them from the viewing window). This image is a hint… Read on!
The late fall November routine is all about ending the “summer” open season and preparing for the winter “behind the scenes” season. We often try to take lunch at the viewing window or share a moment with visitors there.
October is always surprising, what with migration trailing off, interesting swings in weather, and the Big Sit.
Warm and dry pretty much the whole month. Pleasant for sitting around, and can make some nice updrafts. Did you go hawk watching?
Every now and then this year, a warbler comes to the feeder—not to eat, apparently, just to check things out from that perch. And (presumably less often) we notice!
