It's awesome to see birds in different places. It's also nice to see familiar feathery faces. Now that I'm back from Alaska, almost all of my birding for the next two months will be close to home. Each day I look outside, I see fledgling grackles, sparrows and more. The early flowers are also coming into color for the summer, bringing in some flies, bees, butterflies and other little pollinators.
I went down to the park this morning to see how the waterfowl are doing. The six families of Canada Geese ranged from downy, yellow fluffs to almost full-sized geese.
