Late this afternoon an osprey flew over the lake and caught a very large fish. 
He took it high up in a tree to eat, with a great blue heron watching from the 
next tree and another blue heron flew in to sit below the tree to catch scraps. 
The osprey was still eating when I last saw it around 7 PM tonight.
Other birds noticed today at the lake:

Piliated Woodpecker
Red bellied woodpecker
Tufted titmice
Wood thrush (my FOS)
Chick-a-dees - some singing the mating song while some still doing the chick-a 
dee-dee-dee
Ring-necked ducks
Coots
Bufflehead ducks
Canada geese
Cardinals

Also, lots of wildflowers starting to bloom.
