I have another small batch - only six this time - but anyway, enjoy!

Close to sunset on the 11th:

Ladybugs on the 12th.  Every year without fail, a low spot along our tree line near the house floods, and I'm not sure where exactly the ladybugs hibernate, but in any case, every year a lot of them end up in that icy water.  Ever since I was a little girl, I've gone down there every spring to fish them out of the water.  They're good for our crops.  And I needed some fresh air anyway, so it worked out well!
   I'd counted 100 by the time I went back to the house, but there were a few incidents where I wasn't sure if I'd double-counted one or not.  So there are more or less 100 ladybugs in my hand here.

Redpoll on the 13th (I think some birdseed had been spilled there):

And just this afternoon, a male house sparrow hanging around the feeders.
