Which hits all of my wildlife nerd buttons!! I am super sad though Mr. Billy will not be in the area to visit

That sounds like an awesome outing! Take lots of pictures and share them, please. It will help to satisfy my bird watching and nature nerd tendencies! BTW, I had to put up a hummingbird feeder this week. Bossy is back and wooing all the wimmen folk.

I miss all the different hummingbirds in the west. All we have here is the ruby throated and it's a little too early for them to be back. The male black bears have emerged and there are reports of them doing what bears do, so I haven't even put regular bird seed out. I'll be sure to take as many pictures as I can 😊

I agree, that is a big wolf! We are not supposed to have any here in northwest Missouri, but I have seen some tracks that arn't that big but look awfully big for coyote. Although some of the coyote I have seen here are pretty big and healthy.

Sounds like it was a good bird watching day The wolf track was cool, but seeing the Ermine was outstanding. I saw a Fisher & Mink up in the Adirondacks, but never an Ermine. I'd count yourself privileged. Patty

I think it’s pretty clever that it’s NDK ‘s birthday but MsAli got to go birdwatching. 🤣👍👍

Seeing the Ermine was such a surprise and luck. They are so incredibly fast.
