They don’t hang around our area, though they do remain in more southern parts of the province. Yes, the female Red-wings arrive later than the males, usually by about a week or so. Gives the men time to set up their territories first so the women don’t have to deal with all the squabbling, I guess. ;)

Thanks, Barbara! Glad you enjoyed it.

Ummm… where are the Mrs RWBs? Do they come later?
