SPRING MIGRATION IS JUST BEGINNING

Bald Eagle, Mississippi backwaters, March 12, 2015.  The migration of birds up from the south has begun.  We took a drive to the Mississippi River and saw 32 Bald Eagles, 5 Sandhill Cranes, one flock of about 100 Red-winged  Blackbirds, 1 Killdeer, several Robins, Common and Hooded Mergansers, and of course Canada Geese.  Most of the big river is still iced in and spring is not here yet, but it is coming.
