This weeks tip is to put out hummingbird feeders. Its good to have them up so migrating hummingbirds can get energy so they can keep going north.

In two weeks the WPBO spring fling weekend is taking place. It's fun to go there and see a ton of amazing birds and meet amazing birders! This months story will be about WPBO during April. I went last weekend and added a ton of new birds, including a Boreal and Short eared Owl! 
Last weeks Boreal Owl
I've seen the gull everyday, except one, since I first spotted it. It's clearly a Slaty Backed Gull. I was able to get some better pictures since then, too. 
The Slaty Backed Gull is the one with its mouth open.
The dark backed one.
This Glaucous Gull was putting on a real show!!
I was also able to see some killdeer.

I was able to see a pair of Pied Billed Grebes, too. 
Sorry for the late post but birds are starting to show up. This weeks tip is to join eBird. eBird is run by the cornell lab of ornithology. You can put the bird species you saw while you were birding on eBird. eBird helps ornithologist study migration patterns and species range. http://ebird.org/content/ebird/
