Since I've only been officially birding since early last summer I have yet to experience the full glory of SPRING. Since the weather has started to warm up a bit I'm noticing new birds appearing (or returning) daily. I wish I could take a 2-3 month break from work so I can fully appreciate all the changes that are going to start happening.
Although I am eagerly awaiting spring, I'm sad to see the winter birds go. I haven't enjoyed winter so much since I was a kid. I'm trying to sneak a few more glimpses of the winter birds left while I seek out the new spring arrivals. It's quite an interesting transition time. I love it. You never know what you'll see when you head out for the day.
The Spring migration is so much fun. Plus there is the challenge that the birds you identified last fall - during migration - now have different plumage. (We started birding last Spring and are anxiously awaiting the return of the warblers ;)
