birds of a feather

with the great migration underway, we are finding a lot of souvenirs left behind by the travelers who choose to rest-up in our yard for a day or two.  it’s nice to hear birdsong again. yet bittersweet, because we know they are only passing through. almost 400 different species of birds will pass over in the next two months. we’ve enjoyed some mild weather lately, but tonight there will by thunderstorms, as the canadian winds push down upon us. they will bring some much needed rain, and welcome tailwinds for the migrants.
