the birds are back

I’ve been noticing more bird sounds in the air the last week or so. I guess this is the beginning of the return of migratory birds. It’s nice. It feels like we are sharing our space with something exotic when birds are around. The cacophony of sounds has the feel of diversity. It breaks up the monotony of human sprawl.

Last spring on Gambier the birds were incredible, vast in variety and number. Woodpeckers, hummingbirds, eagles, hawks, and many more (I now have a bird book to try to identify some of them). Looking forward to another bird-full spring. They are truly a blessing.
