I am back! After a brutal spring when it comes to teaching loads, I am now back blogging. There is lots to report; fun things I saw in Sweden in March, the species counting competition (our personal bioblitzing) and all the amazing things I saw as part of that, and a garden that right now is exploding with growing greens. For now, here is a set of new US stamps with some of our great, beautiful birds. Of these, I have already seen these year: scarlet tanager (unbelievable red), rose-breasted grosbeak, american goldfinch (they seem to be nesting on our property), white-throated sparrows (which now have left for more northern places I think), and of course the circus-like and flute-sounding Baltimore oriole. Ah, birds are truly wonderful. Having so colored birds around you makes you think you are in the tropics.
