Spring Beauties at Halibut Point
Once again a revolution of the planet on its tilted axis has
brought us to Spring. Warming weather has induced tender foliage in the trees,
feeding the bugs and worms that support the arrival of birds spreading over the
globe from winter retreats down south. Suddenly the woods and meadows of
Halibut Point sparkle with the harlequin patterns of a tropical aviary. It is a
brief festival for birdwatchers. The migrations conclude. The courtships quiet.
Maturing leaves draw a curtain around procreative Summer.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! I noticed the absence of the black and white warbler. They have been taunting me from the branches above my deck. I can hear them, but I can't see them!
ReplyDeleteAs always, this visual blog is a treasure and a pleasure.
