American Pipits

Had great plans for some spring-prep yard work this AM, but a morning snow put a damper on that. So, walked on down to the Snake & was treated to two breeding-plumaged American Pipits. Hadn’t seen before in the unstreaked, buffy-breast form! (As per Sibley, 2nd ed). Beautiful! An almost pinkish sheen to the breast in the proper light. 

Now, back up to house & sun is breaking through. May have to do that yard work, yet!
