On a brief landfill walk this morning I saw two grasshopper sparrows (one singing, the other nicely perched up), saw several bobolinks - heard more. No meadowlark(s) and do not know if they are present this spring. There are (at least) 5 Purple Martins using the martin house by the park office and 3 Cliff Swallows were pulling mud at the ball field puddle at the park entrance. And to boot, of course, finally a beautiful spring morning.
