More sure signs of spring

Another sign of spring just showed up outside my office window - the annual migration of Cedar Waxwings through central South Dakota.

I shot this though the window just a few minutes ago with my desk as a stable camera support. The birds are still flitting about in the tree as I write this.


Spring mating season is also in full swing for several species of animals. I found several tom turkeys strutting their stuff for the ladies near the Prairie Homestead just north of Badlands National Park last week. That's about a mile south of Interstate 90 at Exit 131.
