What is it that Alexander Haig once said? "I am in command." The Wells are having problems hacking it in the Basin Big Leagues this year (see below), so they've been sent down to the Texas Leagues for a while to work on their fundamentals (like proper footgear for feederwatching at Matt Young's). In the meantime, I've been called upon to pinch hit for them. For those of you still getting used to the new Cup/Shot Glass rotation, the Shot Glass is designed as a quick update of Cuppers' totals in between issues of The Cup (which now comes out every other month).
March is supposed to come in like a lion, and go out like a lamb, but in birding terms, it's just the opposite- things are still fairly quiet for the first few weeks of the month, but then some early migrants at the end of March kick off the beginning of 2+ months of spring migration madness. Here is a picture of the relative calm before the real storm:
