What's going on in my yard today
« on: March 28, 2014, 08:23:01 pm »
Thought I would show you what a little spring looks like. It had been cloudy and rainy for most of the day and then the sun came out. Saw quite a bit of orienting flights. It doesn't really matter, but any guesses as to what kind she is?
