You can finally feel spring in the air here. The Sandhill Crane Capitol of the World didn't disappoint. The migration of the cranes & this surreal sunset made this the perfect light and shadow.
Didn't hesitate a seconds to grab the gear. Dust off the lens and get a few nice shots of that afternoons Nebraska Sandhill Cranes Sunset.

Hundreds if not thousands of monarch butterflies were gathering on the Spit today before crossing Lake Ontario during their migration south to Mexico.

Or did they ever really leave?
Plenty of migratory birds spotted over our fair city in recent weeks. We even saw a robin & heard another so far this month on our walks, I saw a turkey vulture yesterday.
All of these sightings are our earliest ever.
I snapped this distant panic shot with my old Samsung cell...not bad!
Sandhill's are on the move south! Hundreds flew into the Horicon Marsh yesterday. It is one of the most amazing sights to see...and hear!
152/365 - Every year nearly 120,000* geese fly overhead to land and spend the winter on the Heacham marshes along the coast. They fly over in these formations and you can hear them coming. I took this on a grey day so I upped the contrast and changed mode to greyscale in Photoshop.
*Someone counted them last year as part of a survey.

I have had more monarch butterflies around the past few days than I can ever remember. I do have a nice crop of milkweed and Greggs Mist plants in the back yard that seem to be go to plants. Wind stopped long enough to get this one pretty sharp.

Why can we not be like birds eh? LOL.
Well, they do ADAPT to their environment, a big must for ‘migrants’?
Bird migration is the regular seasonal movement, often north and south along a flyway, between breeding and wintering grounds.
Many species of bird migrate.
Migration carries high costs in predation and mortality, including from hunting by humans, and is driven primarily by availability of food.
It occurs mainly in the northern hemisphere, where birds are funnelled on to specific routes by natural barriers such as the Mediterranean Sea or the Caribbean Sea.
Have a bright day and thanx, M, (*_*)
