Sign of spring: the gulls are back
Over the last two days I’ve been noticing the return of the gulls – shrieking and wheeling overhead, they’re annoying but nonetheless a welcome sign of spring.

Ah ha! So it’s official now? 🙂

I noticed them here in Rosemont about a week ago. And I’ve seen geese. I’m still waiting to see my first turkey vulture of the season.

@Chris – almost. We await news of the pothole crisis – the other sign – but that comes after the passing of tomorrow’s snow.

I haven’t seen any geese yet, but wow, have the cardinals in my neighbourhood woken up! Cardinals don’t migrate, but I don’t see them around much in winter. But it’s like a full-on cardinals festival this past week!

Blork, maybe they’re choosing a new pope.

The cardinals have woken up in my neighbourhood too. There aren’t that many, but I can usually hear one or two singing every morning on my walk to the bus stop. I wish there were more of them. They sound so lovely and it’s so nice to catch a glimpse of them.
