March 31

March 31, 2008 by OrientSee.

In a moment the sky clouded over and the wind grew chill and there is still ice on the puddles. The redwings were loud and incessant but everything else seemed to be heading for cover as the newest round of bad weather approaches. I read all the bird sightings and am in a bit of a funk. All these cool birds and hardly a new visitor to Belle Isle yet. It’s like waiting for your birthday when you were eight. Endless boring wait. I do have a little self control (very little according to my wife) but I want to see “our” ospreys back. I want to see the broad white wings of a great egret. I want. I want. I want. I’m going to go pout about the injustice of it all. Mostly this endless cold windy wet weather has got to end soon, I hope.

Ciao!
