red-winged blackbirds arrive

Watching the Seasons

I was so happy to go down to my garden and hear the red-winged blackbirds had arrived. There were many of them all around the pond, singing away. I wish I could get a picture of them. A flock of Canada geese arrived yesterday and are adding their honking to all the noise. It’s warm 50F, but cloudy today. Rain is on the way.

I like to keep track of when the blackbirds arrive. I’ve added 2020 to my list:

2009: April 9

2015: March 27
2016: March 5
2018: February 25

2019: March 12

2020: February 25
