Some Sunny Spring Scenes

The gorgeous weather today was a good excuse to get out exploring and I managed to find many first of year species. 
Singing Savannah
This phoebe has returned to the usual nesting area around our back culvert.

Spring greenery is popping up here and there.  Coltsfoot is one of the first to be found.

Wild leeks are popping up in the woodlots.  These wild edibles have a strong flavour reminiscent of onions.

Waterfowl are more numerous now that our ponds have thawed.


I don't see a lot of jack rabbits around here so this guy was a nice find.
