Interesting Light of Slightly Clouded Sun
In this transition of seasons our weather fluctuates between mild Spring days and what seems more like winter with snow returning. There is a saying here that it is never boring for you can just wait a few hours and the weather will change. With all these changes every day there is something new and today brought a return of the juncos with their soft bird calls filling the air. Like the redpolls they are ground feeders and are finding a feast with the melting snow revealing all sorts of goodies.
Come check them out...

The other character who's tracks I showed earlier is the squirrel who was hanging out close to the feeder.

The squirrel had a stash of cones in a hiding spot by the tree so he bought out some to munch on when we were too close to the feeder for him to feel comfortable to come to.

JJ gets frisky with the mild weather and loves to check out the open areas around the forest - newly released from the snow.

The geese are still slowly returning mostly in pairs always announcing themselves with their honking as they fly above the tree tops.
