Spring at Centennial Park

Spring…new beginnings…tender…fresh…new life.

 
Those are just a few words that come to mind when I think of spring. A few days ago I had the chance to experience those feelings at Centennial Park in Orland Park, IL.
 
A cute little gazebo adorns a lake which is teaming with wildlife! On this day I spot a palm warbler (a life list first!!!) plus several American coots, barn swallows, tree swallows, red-wing blackbirds, a male cardinal, and one killdeer.
Yesssss spring, a hot bed of activity.
 
Hopefully you can get out there and enjoy some tender green color and vibrant pinks!
