Spring is in the air!   Eastern Phoebes are back and nesting, many customers report nesting Bluebirds (mealworms will help insure success in this early season), Osprey, Purple Martins, Tree Swallows have all been seen, and RT Hummingbirds are on their way north in great numbers.

Join Jerry on a Spring Bird Walk at Hammonasset, any Saturday from April 14 through June 16.  Our full calendar is on the calendar page, and can be saved.

Above is a photo of a visiting neighbor who has found an excellent place to roost since last fall.  He or she serenades us as the sun goes down.

Black and White Warbler by Jack Faller

We'll soon be seeing spring migrants, such as the Black and White Warbler, as they make their way to northern nesting grounds.  Come join us on a Saturday morning birdwalk, and you'll see this guy among many others, when the timing's right.
