A Canine Singer - Alaska (Explored)

The sled dog racing season is over in Alaska - so this little singer will now have to entertain her canine companions at home in the dog lot.

Spring has arrived a month early making conditions treacherous for many winter sports. The snow is rotten and unstable, and the fear of avalanches in the back country is a real concern.

A small flock of Varied Thrush showed up outside of our cabin door this afternoon, and they too are a whole month early. I have heard the chrip of Robins deep in the forest the past couple of evenings, but I have not yet spotted one. Since both the Varied Thrush and the Robins survive on worms and bugs - I think they should have waited just a little longer before making their way north.

Have a great week ahead everyone!
