Dear Peter, It finally feels like Spring all-around. Here is a photo of a Tree Swallow which flew around with several continuing others and the Barn Swallow at the North side of Peninsula. There were also 3 Louisiana Waterthrushes (Ravine, Music Pagoda, Pink Beach) and 2 Common Ravens at Lincoln entry and the continuing Terrace Bridge Pine Warblers plus 1 at Butterfly Meadow. Warm regards,

Klemens
