Spring Birds
You might find it weird, but only since I started my birdwatching and photography hobby have I noticed – I mean, REALLY noticed – how beautifully nature changes throughout the year. The color palette changes, the animal behavior changes, the overall mood changes. The spring is not necessarily my favorite season – I prefer extremes (that’s why I love both snowy mountains and the desert so much) but it’s gorgeous nonetheless. The two best things about spring are the beautiful colors and the spring babies.
This year (2023), I was preoccupied with other things when I realized that April came and went, and I still haven’t paid a visit to the park’s birds to watch the newly hatched babies. That’s not good, I thought, if I wait too long they might turn up to be not-as-cute-large-pooping-machines like their parents. So, as usual, I grabbed my Nikon birdwatching camera, put a nice horror audiobook (after watching The Black Phone I’m now checking out Joe Hill who wrote the story) and went for a walk in the park.
As always, it was worth it. I met a cute mute swan family with fluffy babies that somehow reminded me of my cat Rocky. I saw some Canada geese and goslings, and had a pleasant, relaxing time with birds and giant crickets (if you know, you know).
