It IS Spring!

It truly must be spring because the Goldfinches are almost full yellow and they are singing their sweet mating calls. The Robins are everywhere. The Sandhills and Canada Geese have all flown north. The early blooming spring plants have been in flower most of this month. Someone must have switched calendars on us. For the last couple weeks we've been awakened by the call of the White-winged Doves and the soft cooing of the Mourning Doves. The Roadrunner has also been seen more frequently. Wonder who will show up next? Maybe hummingbirds will arrive a month earlier than usual. Hmmmmm....
