Dead woodchuck is my barometer.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

I've seen two road killed stink bombs in the last few days. Also noticed more hawks than usual. Two days ago, there was a flock of 3-400 robins in my yard and there have been large flocks of starlings. Getting close!

The skunks start coming out when their winter dens start filling with spring melt water.
We might be close to warmer weather.

Saw 2 dead skunks and a live one in the last week - even saw a chippie today.

Wife text she saw two ants in the kitchen yesterday.
 sweet smell of skunk last weekend
Thinking of casting a creek for early run eyes next week before season closes
boats ready for the most part to chase finger lakes perch

I'm looking at a female Bluebird as I type this. Near Nunda, NY. Lousy picture, but it brings hope. For 6" of snow yesterday.

Funny, we’ve seen a few ants in the house last 3 weeks. Thought it was awfully early for that

I live near Utica - central NY - we've had bluebirds here all winter - groups of 7 or 8.  We have them every year.  Not sure they really migrate - not all of them anyway.

I saw some cardinals there Wednesday in the snow during my visit.
