They are not always easy to see but Michael Reinhart has the coveted ability to have birds pose for him - or so it seems! Here's a Hermit Thrush...posing.

Just lovely! These birds love to sing in the spring and once they pair up they continue to sing to each other from a distance. To hear their beautiful songs, here is a link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Hermit_Thrush/sounds

Thanks to Mike for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

We are in another dry spell with no rain predicted for a week or so. It's warm and there is no wind - a beautiful time to be on the Mendonoma Coast.
