#threegoodthings #3goodthings 1. I taught a class on maternal mental health tonight that went well,and unexpectedly got to run the postpartum support group, too. The conversations were lovely and fun. 2. Got in over 13K steps! 3. Picked up the sounds of #sandhillcranes on my #MerlinBird app, and then saw 38 of them fly right over our heads! #Birds

@GPJohnston Do you have the #MerlinBird app? It does a great job of identifying by call.

First day back at work after a month of baby bonding leave. I'll tell ya, it was pretty nice sitting here with the window open (it's 34 F ) letting Merlin Bird ID listen to the neighborhood. It’s a real “round up the usual suspects” list, but I’m happy with the results. Not sure why I didn’t do this while on leave…

Got a great selection of bird calls the other day while reading a book on deck. CN audibly tell the difference between the Crows (not visually) and I think the flycatcher may be false positive (it’s to faint/distant for me to discern) #MerlinBird #birdingMD

I’ve seen this American #kestrel (at least once saw pair) hunting in the field across from our house, have been hearing it/they a lot and getting many hits on the #MerlinBird app from the trees/wires on our property all spring. Finally got a passable photo to validate its existence.
