Early Morning Junko Sighting on PEI!

Spring is coming, even though we still have three feet of undrifted snow in the front yard!  It's hard to wait for spring this long when my friends in Washington, D.C. are enjoying cherry blossoms in full bloom this week.  Spring birds are returning to the Island.  I'm watching a junko and a siskin at the bird feeder.  We had a suet cage until yesterday, and now it's nowhere to be seen.  We think a crow may have made off with it when no one was looking--maybe we'll find it in the woods when the snow is melted!
