Lovely to hear an Eastern Wood-Pewee singing again in our Ridge Road woods this morning. Like Ron Wilson's report I was concerned with its late arrival. Gordon heard a Swainson's Thrush yesterday in our woods, back on territory, and now a Red-eyed Vireo has joined the woodland refrain. Sadly the Tree Swallows that use my nesting box across the road never returned this year. I suspect they succumbed to lack of enough flying insects to survive last year, which may explain why their three 2-3 day old chicks starved to death in their nest on the Ridge. Saw a pretty blue butterfly flitting through the forget-me-knots this morning.
