I also had my first Baltimore Oriole of the season at Gwynnbrook Park in Owings Mills yesterday. "My" hummingbird seemed a little anxious this morning as I was refilling his feeder. I decided to eat breakfast before I replace the feeder. As I was eating, I looked up and he was hovering right in front of my kitchen window, looking in at me as if to say, "You have the nerve to eat your breakfast while I am out here looking for mine? Hurry it up!" Needless to say, I did. Spring is indeed a wonderful season!!
