There’s a Time to Blog and a Time to Bird

And now is definitely time for the latter. I’m leaving for the upper Texas coast, to catch spring migration in all it’s glory. I shall return Sunday evening.

With a cold front that just swept through Texas reaching the coast last night, I may be arriving a day late. (When birds heading north meet strong winds blowing against them, they “fallout” by the thousands into the first land they find. If they have a strong tailwind, they’ll keep going inland past the coast. What’s good for the birders is bad for the birds, and vice versa.)

I will of course have plenty of pictures upon my return. You should do the same. Whether birding’s your thing or not, get outside and enjoy spring!
