Spot and Co. going nuts at lunch, out in the Fill. Thought there might be an eagle or a coyote or something, but none that I could see. Close to 100 crows, cawing back and forth, swirling in the sky, dropping into the grasses, then flying from one grove of trees to the next. Perhaps it was a crow party. Starlings, red-wing blackbirds and robins also adding to the mix of voices and gathering. Very few ducks out and about, anywhere. A few n. shovelers in the canal, and cormorants fanning out theirs wings to dry, and three Canadian geese over near the bird party, one lone hummingbird shooting into the sky, but that was about it. Not sure where everyone went.
Very overcast, but so far, no rain.
The air here smells like white flowers. Box is beginning to bloom. Seems a little early, usually associate those with later January, early February. Bulbs pushing up in the yard at home, early for those too. We just had a hard freeze...already early spring?
I'll post a couple of pictures later.
