Songs of Spring

~ Amanda A. Meader

Song sparrow (Melospiza melodia) in the yard last spring. This year spring arrives in Maine (and the entire Northern Hemisphere) on Sunday, March 20, 2022, at 11:33 a.m.  I began to hear red-winged black birds two weeks ago, and two nights ago I heard several geese fly over.

Earlier in the week, two juvenile eagles put on a show for a few brief minutes.
They were pretty high up and moving fast, so the pictures aren’t great, but still fun to share. This one in particular is a bit blurry but I loved how the eagle on top was looking down at the other one.

This juvenile is a bit blurry too but I love the look on his (her?) face.
