Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves.

Birds! and more
Spotted were: American Crow, Black Capped Chickadee, Rock Dove, Mourning Dove, Red tailed Hawk, Song Sparrow,Swamp Sparrow, Turkey, Canadian Geese, American Kestrel, European Starling, Northern Cardinal a few species i couldn't identify and a few species i only caught a glimpse of. Saw thousands of Canadian geese, lots of crows and chickadees and sparrows, i live in a city so many species i don't see often. Chickadees were calling with their spring song, as well as the normal chick a dee dee dee dee. Saw two red tailed hawks driving back up to school which was sweet. Saw a flock of turkeys driving to Binghamton one weekend, also on that trip, and i kid you not, i counted over 450 whitetail deer who had come to the side slopes of the road to feed on the finally uncovered grasses. (I wasn't driving) The binoculars definitely came in handy, as well the bird book i borrowed.
