Ground Hog

Ground Hog Marmota monax
16 April 2013

    While out birding today we saw a couple of Ground Hogs (or Woodchucks if you prefer) and it was great to see yet one more sign that spring is finally establishing itself.


Ironically a Barn Swallow Hirundico rustica was winging over one of the Ground Hogs, my first of the year and another sure portent of spring.

I'm a life long birder. My interests are birds, nature, reading, books, outdoors, travel, food and wine.
