This afternoon after getting home from a trip to Columbus, I decided to go out in the woods and see what was moving around out there. Spring migrants are beginning to show up. Northern Parula, Yellow-throated Vireo and a Black-throated Green Warbler. Birds are singing territorial songs everywhere.
I'm a little surprised at the bluebirds. Last year they had their nest completed on March 20. This year they haven't even started. I hope they nest with us again this year!
