I’m very fortunate that I have a backyard that lots of birds love to visit because I love having them around.
One of my favorites came back last week: a Black-and-white Warbler. A lot of birds show off with beautiful colors, but this little one shows that black and white can be brilliant colors on their own.
The Black-and-white Warbler arrived with other warblers who have been visiting, including Yellow-throated Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers and Pine Warblers.
While driving down Joe Overstreet Road or exploring the Three Lakes Wildlife Management Area, I can’t remember a time I didn’t see a least one Eastern Meadowlark.
