THE MIGRATION CONTINUES


The bird migration, specifically the return of the warblers has been continuous and on track.  The wood warblers have flown in almost to the day of previous years and so far we have tallied 19 different species.

I hope you enjoy the new additions to Cedar Ridge.

THE MIGRATION


The bird migration is in full swing and the warblers are here on the ridge in full force.  I have been out in the field each day photographing their colorful return.  
"A picture is worth a thousand words.".... so I hope you enjoy these images of spring....



                                        
                                   The prettiest bird on the page is my grandson Will... he is non migratory......
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds travel more than 2,000 miles to go from Panama to their breeding destination in Canada.
