Birdhouse “J” is located north of our farm pond, in a low area where, during heavy rains, a temporary stream forms which funnels the run off into the pond. I wasn’t sure if the birds would like this spot – as it’s low, but… Continue Reading “Bluebirds at House “J””

Their ever-so distinguishable trill-tweet song was echoing around the pond. I also spotted a Song sparrow singing… Continue Reading “Spring SOON!”
