Today, I woke up to several hundred Canada Geese flying over my house in 
Baltimore county.  These geese were way up there in the sky and were heading 
N NW in direction.

Later at Downs Park, I saw many hundreds more in many more flocks flying in 
the same direction.  Also there were 300 or so Scaup in rafts on the Bay off 
the park shore line.

Then I did not see these guys but a flock of Tundra Swans flew over Pasadena 
today as well, I could hear them clearly but could not locate them in the 
sky.  I think the fact that they are white in color and the sky being a 
light grey didnt help either.  Again they were heading in a N NW direction.

Folks I think Spring is here.
