Haven't been out birding much at all this year, but in the last few days I've had the following show up at my home in Otsego:
Red-winged Blackbirds (several more to join the one that overwintered in my yard) Song Sparrows (2 weeks earlier than they showed up in my yard last year. This year: 3/12, last year: 3/30) House Finches (They don't seem to winter in my yard...but they arrived yesterday, paired up) Mourning Dove (1 flew by this morning) American Tree Sparrows (They disappeared for a while, but returned in numbers yesterday) No flyovers of Greater White-fronted Geese yet, but hundreds of Canada Geese flew over yesterday...
