We enjoyed some sunshine and May showers while seeing some spring sights…
A pair of catbirds were feeding on the staghorn sumac fruit at Big Lake:
They also did some mating dances in the Tag Alders:
European Starling posing in the grass. They seem to like being around humans….
Cooper’s Hawk checking the road ditch along Hwy 529:
As usual, this little Yellow Warbler gave its location away by singing. Click on the photo to see it closer …
A little closer, click for close-ups …
These unfurling ferns are NOT FIDDLEHEADS (hairy stems, lack of brown papery covering) …
This Trillium is also unfurling …
The next day rain showers gave some interesting textures to the Trilliums … 
… and to the first Canada Columbine of the season …
Mary Holland describes Dwarf Ginseng flowering in New England. I have yet to see this plant or its relatives up here.
