Spring migration is in full swing! I haven't had much chance to post about it what with the flurry of Costa Rica pictures (which isn't over yet--I have a few more around-the-resort birds to share, and then it's on to the avian grand finale of the vacation, our tour to Carara National Park.) But I've been having a great time watching all our breeding birds come home again.

I'm actually cheating with these. They're leftovers from a photo shoot around this time last spring that I didn't develop before. The Hooded Merganser pair is back on the same pond--I saw them yesterday--but there's no real reason to disturb their peace when I already have something to show.
So far it's blackbirds and kinglets, ducks and cranes, and other birds who can handle our often cold and wet April weather. But in another couple weeks, the Yellow Warblers will be back. I can't wait.
