First Spotted Towhee of 2005



I woke up at 6:30 this morning to hear my first Spotted Towhee of the season honking his horn in my yard.  "BEEP-BEEP" goes his 2 note call as he goes from bush to bush claiming his territory even though we still have several feet of snow in the yard.  He is always my first migrant to show up and the last to leave.  I better fill my hummer feeders as they should be here within 3 weeks...spring has sprung!
 
Happy birding to all,
