Most fall and winter months are silent. The birds are focused on survival through the winter. Finding food and shelter don't depend on birdsong.
But, sometime in February, something stirs in them, and bird song is heard once more.
By March 22, it was in full concert mode. This screenshot was taken from the free app Merlin.
Some of our summer birds have returned to where I live in the Southern Tier of New York. Others will return in the coming weeks, and the Dark-eyed Junco will be leaving soon for its northern breeding grounds.
With a bird song in my heart, I join Sandee at Comedy Plus for her #WordlessWednesday.
