Congratulations Scott, this spotting is featured in the Project Noah blog today! http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/3003835...
Wish you a speedy recovery!!
I had surgery this winter and have been taking it very easy. I'll be more active by the time it starts to get warm.
I did'nt expect you to read it so fast though. Hardly see you around!
Aww, thank you Emma. It's been a slow winter for me as far as nature spottings go. I'm really looking forward to spring arriving so I can get out and take more pictures.
