This morning’s walk was bright with the promise of Springtime. Tree Swallows were vying to check out nest boxes, a Pine Warbler trilled in the woods, and Eastern Phoebes darted up and down looking for bugs. Most of the ducks have moved on but Osprey are again wheeling in the sky and diving for fish.
