red winged black bird

from 2:19 on flickr

Tinges of red on the tips of the branches of the maple trees as the buds begin to swell. Lady bugs appearing in the kitchen. Daylight savings time has started with much more light in the evenings; back to darkness for the morning walks. Sound of a red winged black bird. Hard to believe that something that basically sounds like a rusty door hinge could be so uplifting.
