Spring in New York



I had just a short time to take a quick look down Ironwood Road in Sterling Forest yesterday afternoon and found what I was looking for. Perched high in a dogwood tree along with a beautiful Indigo bunting was my FOY Golden-winged warbler. In the brief period I had to scan the vegetation along the powerline cut, I had nice looks at towhees, Prairie warbler, and several Yellow warblers. On the way out, I stopped by the paper company pond and had a Spotted sandpiper working the shoreline along with a Great blue heron. The shot I took of the Indigo bunting seated among the blooms of the dogwood simply states what this season is all about.
