Spring!

Cedar Waxwing

Bombycilla cedrorun
Mostly seen in flocks, moving from area to area, looking for berries. Constantly makes a very high-pitched "sreee" whistling sound.

Spring Plant
"Spring is when life's alive in everything." - Christina Rossetti

Approaching Black Fox Bog
"You must converse much with the field and woods, if you would imbibe health into your mind and spirit" - Thoreau

Budding Tree
"Listen, can you hear it? Spring's sweet cantata. The strains of grass pushing through the snow. The song of buds swelling on the vine. The tender timpani of a baby robin's heart. Spring." - Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider
