I give you the Golden-crowned Kinglet. This, along with my tagline that birds and birding have continued to save us during this pandemic!

Marching in brightness, color, and warmth
Oh, and BIRDS of course.
Somehow I began writing this post at the end of March, and now, almost two months later, I’m finally publishing! A LOT to catch up on, so I’ll begin here….
March began the cusp of migration, both with birds coming and going. And, there’s nest building too, where even some early chicks bring in the brighter, warmer more colorful month of March. And, we didn’t have snow! A first ever, at least in my lifetime.
Mama Great Horned Owl sitting on her nest. And such began March. A freshly hatched egg at the base of the Sycamore tree! Owlets – 2 of them! The Sycamore tree Owl nest A Carolina Wren busy busy nest-building Out from it’s kinda sorta hibernation, the Eastern Chipmunk Spring morning Bird houses hung, what will they bring for nests?? Forsythia in bloom Male Goldfinsh in bloom too! His plumage will go all bright bright yellow Eastern Bluebird pretty pair Mom owl on the nest, the owlets still elusive (but, soon!) The great Great horned Owl. More spring color Who complements who here? White-throated Sparrow, a migratory bird who will head north to breed this summer Red Fox – this one a Vixen, I think!
