Spring Equinox Arrives

The calendar says the Spring Equinox has arrived. Feels like we have finally crossed the finish line after slogging through an ultra gruelling winter marathon.

For the past few days a chipmunk has been venturing from his/her den and gathering seeds scattered under the bird feeders. No doubt, also checking out the status of fellow chippies.

Emerging from it's den.

All clear from the West!

All clear from the East!

Safe to venture forth!

This lone purple finch has joined a flock of gold finches.
