I saw my first robin of the season!
I gave up flying airplanes last year and decided to replace it with bird watching. Kind of a big change and I don't know anything about bird watching. But I've realized the morning bike ride is a great time to do bird listening because it's pretty quiet on the path. So I listen for a few distinctive calls (that's all I can remember) and then when I get home, I check them out on a website. I still don't know what yesterday's is, and I heard 2 today. All three of these are very familiar and common. The only one I maybe found from listening to the website recordings was a chickadee. I'll have to take a birder friend on a bike ride and have her tell me what I'm hearing.
On the way home winds were 12 mph gusting to 23 and it was a tailwind. yea!
