Seward, Alaska
Today at 1 pm, I
heard a faint bird call. Raven? No! I searched the southern sky and found my
First Of Season SANDHILL CRANES, joyously winging their way north. They were in
a tidy V but that soon dissolved as several swapped places simultaneously. As
the bugling black dots flew high overhead in happy disarray, I counted 36. I’m
so glad they are not quiet flyers!
As they faded
from sight, a Milbert's Tortoiseshell butterfly flitted past, a bumblebee
zoomed purposefully along at high speed, and a mosquito checked my blood type.
Happy Spring!
