Hey all, well after a looong winter, spring has sprung. We got a lot of rain the last 2 days and that with the snow melt (BTW, there is still some snow hanging around in the shelter belts and in the hills) should have enough ground moisture to get the prairie grasses growing for nestling season.
Have been seeing some birds out and about courting. Seen some roosters with 2 hens also. Good sign. Looks like some pulled through okay, but I know we had a winter kill how bad, time will tell. This nestling season will be critical for a good season in the fall. Hope the weather holds and the broods do well later this spring and early summer.
Fingers crossed!
Best,
Greg
