New migratory birds are arriving daily in the Adirondacks as the warm temperatures and southerly winds take over.
Some recent sightings of mine are:
ruby-crowned kinglets 
fox sparrow 
pine warbler 
palm warbler(at the VIC Bog) 
northern harrier 
tree swallows 
yellow-bellied sapsuckers 
hermit thrush 
Several students tell me of Ospreys hunting for fish, common loons calling on Lower St Regis, American woodcocks “peenting,” and hermit thrush singing near campus. Spring is definitely the best season!
