A pristine track walked after a late spring snow.
My only regret was the tracks left in snow.

No fooling
Well it’s April 2nd so it can’t be a joke. The flakes keep flying as winter marches on.
Although it is a beautiful way to start the week if I do say so myself.
Out of the blue
What a pleasant surprise to find that the male Mountain Bluebirds have started to arrive even with a significant amount of snow covering the ground in most places. This “first of the year” bluebird does indeed signal that spring has sprung and their arrival was indeed out of the blue.
Just look at all that blue it is amazing.
Nothing to see here
A male Ringed Neck Pheasant struts his stuff on a sunny March afternoon. A nice large group sure did add color to the rapidly melting grain field on a late winter day.
For such big birds in open fields these guys always seem tough to photograph. Always moving and understandably a bit skittish.
A brief appearance
While I see the trails all over the place in the snow I seldom see Voles out in the open and for good reason given how many different predators prey on them. This day I kept seeing this Vole darting in and out of a tunnel grabbing what appeared to be a quick bite to eat. They seldom stayed for more than a few seconds but is was great to get a good look and a few (albeit a bit fuzzy) photos of these small mammals.
