Well, once again spring is around the corner, and I am getting antsy waiting for all the new birds to arrive. My question is, what arrives here, and when? This is my first spring outside of NJ, and it is really strange not having any idea of when birds may come through. I imagine in NJ, cardinals and titmice are singing on warm days. Grackles must be all over the place, and I imagine turkey vultures are being seen more often. A trip to the Great Swamp would probably turn up lots of Great Blue Herons hanging out near their rookery, and I bet Great-horned owl nests are easy to find. The problem with this time of year, is that I usually get all fired up for arriving species, then have to wait until April for any substantial migration. -Greg -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Greg Pasquariello (916) 920-9092 grp@unify.UUCP Unify Corporation ...!{csusac, pyramid}!unify!grp
