Mid March

Here we are, over half way through the month, and so far there hasn't been a day when it hasn't rained for at least part of the time....today being the best one so far so we headed over to Harrison Bay for a walk...


the most activity was in the cornfield beside the dike...


think this European Starling was collecting nesting materials....


Killdeer were calling all over the place but virtually impossible to see they blend in so well!


This Canada Goose pair were also in the field while others were out on the bay and in nearby farm fields.

The Blackberry hedgerows were enjoyed by...


some American Robins....and


Spotted Towhee - this one was enjoying a good stretch in the sunshine!

Back up at the estuary end...



it has been pretty quiet too...


am wondering if this Mallard pair are thinking of nesting in the log bay area as they seem to always be there.


quite a few Dark-eyed Junco around right now as well, which is typical for this time of the year.  Am still waiting for the first Rufous Hummingbird of the season to show up - should be any day now.
