Earth Day is Turtle Day!
Lots of turtles out today on the banks of the Charles, more than I've even seen. Parents and children, soaking up the sun. Scanning the opposite shore, it seemed like every available submerged tree branch or jutting rock had a painted turtle (or twelve) on it.
In other CRP news, spring is progressing.
The tree swallows are nesting. (See detail below)
Here's the female bluebird who has chosen the box near the entrance to the property.
And the great blue herons are back to stay.
(No sounds today. Earth Day also seems to produce landscaping trucks and leaf blowers.)
