Balmy Week in April

The first week of April - The weather turned summer like - very warm, temperatures high in the mid-20s.  I saw my first turtles of the year and hearing frogs croaking.  More and more Tree Swallows were seen every day and some birds busy building their nests.

Killdeer

Tree Swallow

Blue-winged Teal


Cedar Waxwings


Pied billed Grebe


Turkey Vultures


Bufflehead


Wood Duck

Lots of Painted Turtles!




It was nice to see a Virginia Rail at Westminster Ponds this week!  Very hard to find in the reeds.  This was my best shot.
