"You don’t need to be a doctor to immediately realize how we feel better when we are outside, in nature."
and it is so...
finally got some Toms displaying...love is in the air for sure.
Just as figured I got my yellow throated warbler in the 5 mile the very next day after seeing it in Lee County at the Wetland by the cemetery...found it in my hotspot Goodale SP.

I've had black n white warbler right here in the yard no photo dang it he caught me when I was outside with no camera with me...also had a prothonotary answer my phishing! No sighting yet but I'm hopeful...If I don't see him by end of March I'll add it on the heard only.
And here is another sign of Spring...the E Tiger Swallowtail the plum tree in the pasture is blooming and bringing in the pollinators.
Had a really beautiful fox squirrel in the 5 mile radius...his tail was so amazing!
I didn't get him and his entire tail in this shot!
He was sooo lovely!

Had an Anhinga at the hotspot also this gives me 6 with the Prothonotary that I have not reported yet as I want a photo...since ebird says it is rare, but truthfully it is NOT rare in this park...saw the first one ever in my life right there many years ago. So to be sure it was the Prothonotary I played the call and got a few answers in 3 different directions...exact replies...but up so high in the pines I could not get my eyes on it under bleak skies...Hopefully the sun will return and I can get a photo. They will be moving on to swampier digs when the spring moisture dries out...I really gotta try for this one. Maybe I can get a recording if not a photo.
BEFORE
AFTER
so simple eh?
Today was another gloomy cold day and I tried one stop to refind the Prothonotary and no go...must keep trying.
I really need a string of good weather to get my March Bird Brackets to move up! Here is my kind of March Madness.
Peace
Everyday is a new Adventure!

This post is defying all my attempts to format so who knows what the end product will look like. ON A weird note, the prism in my binoculars suddenly came loose...it was rattling around inside the left side. I was able to disassemble it and reattach the prism...but now the focus wheel is out of whack as I took that off and have not been able to get it back right yet! I will keep trying but it could be that I have NO Bins that are in good shape...my old ones have a blur to them so they're no good.
Peace
Everyday is a new Adventure!
