The ice is almost out of our stretch of the Ammonoosuc, and with that came the first Red Wing Blackbirds, a pair of Canada Geese looking for a grassy patch, and the songbirds are showing up daily. We had a flock of Robins on the front lawn this morning and there's a male cardinal singing his heart out out back, up the hill! It's coming!
Don't forget to bring your birdfeeders IN especially at night, as the Black Bears are definitely out and very hungry! As our friend, Andy Timmins, from the NH Bear Project said to us: "A FED BEAR IS A DEAD BEAR!" Bears who live too close to people generally end up becoming a nuisance that can result in their demise. With the ground uncovering from a long winter, there are plenty of natural food sources now available for the birds, so don't feel that you are depriving your feathered friends!
