Hmm. That's interesting, as if I remember correctly, you live well south of where I do. So they'd certainly arrive earlier, and they also aren't even migrant in some of the southernmost parts of the country. Maybe you just haven't seen them yet. :-?

My favorite part of spring is certainly, of course, the bird migration from late March to mid May. I went to a program at the public library last night about the bird migration in Massachusetts. We can definitely see some interesting birds in Massachusetts during the migration only (though a good number also stay to breed until fall migration), and of course, the Atlantic coast is one of the major flyways. With warming weather, I'm certainly hoping to get out a couple times during April, at least, though May becomes trickier as that's when classes ramp up for finals.

Spring officially arrived today (Friday, March 20) at a little after 6 p.m., I believe it was. So happy to say goodbye to Winter and hello to Spring. Of course we may still have some chilly temps yet, but warm weather is just ahead. It was rainy here today but in the 60's and we may hit the 70's tomorrow. :happy_marle:

You can see the signs! Trees are budding, birds are beginning to sing, and the migrants are starting to show. On our way back home, we saw Turkey Vultures, and even one Black Vulture. Granted, the latter is way far north of its normal range, let alone far north for this early in the season.

Spring officially arrives in the USA tonight around 12 o'clock or so. Tomorrow, Sunday, March 20, 2016 is the official first day of Spring for 2016!!

Yahoo! Goodbye Winter!! Hello Spring, glad to see ya!! :yes: :flower:

Although, it has already been Spring like weather where we live for awhile now, tomorrow may be a different tune as a cold front is moving in and bringing chilly weather back with it. Only for a few days, I think. It always happens this time of year so nothing that wasn't expected. But it won't last long.

Happy Spring everyone!! :)
