Another cool day temperature in the low 50s. A true partly cloudy day. I can’t take a hike because I have no time today. But I do spend a little time outside. The Wood Thrush and the Scarlet Tanager are the most obvious of the singing birds. The Rose-breasted Grosbeaks are not as obvious at the feeders. The males are singing on territory. The females come in for a bite to eat though.

I found Columbine along the side of the house. Only 2 daffodils in all the yard, but other flowers are taking their place.

I am looking forward to some warmer weather predicted for tomorrow and Saturday. If a warm fron does indeed come through, We could have a couple of good days for birds.
