The birds were everywhere when I pulled into the parking lot. I could hear them all around and could see many flying through the park. Most appeared to be Robins or Chickadees but I could also hear others; including a Northern Flicker. I got all my gear together and turned around with the binoculars to see if I could spot the Flicker. He was a little way into the park poking around a pile of brush.
The weather was a lot nicer then I had hoped for and it turned out to be a great morning for a walk. As I made my way towards the back of the park I could hear frogs singing all around. It sure sounds like they are as ready as I am for Spring to arrive.
