Hi all,
 A single Tree Swallow flew over the yard about half an hour ago, my  FOY 
here in southern Carroll County. A pair of Red-tailed Hawks was soaring  around 
one coming in very close over my shop for extreme close-up views,  stunning 
against the deep blue sky. One of the resident Cooper's Hawks was  patrolling the 
hills, and I've been seeing it (her?) regularly since last week,  flying 
around almost daily.
 
The mockingbirds were having territorial disputes this morning, and the  
cardinals are in full, glorious song as well. Ahhh, spring...
