pesky1972 4,927 Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 All I’ve heard today is sleet and hail rattling the windows. Be a month before the summer migrants get here. I don’t blame them. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisJones 7,973 Posted April 3, 2019 Report Share Posted April 3, 2019 The Western Meadowlarks are back so the seasons are changing. Seen my first Turkey Vulture of the year too and they're early but welcome. Local news has just reported that the ultra rare California Condor is nesting in Zion National Park which means I'll be heading out there before the tourists turn up for the summer. It's a good start to the spring! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
