I live in the southern Sierra, near Lake Isabella, and spring has definately arrived here. A few token wildflowers are blooming (very scanty and a month later than usual), trees are leafing out, and the birds are out in full force. All sorts of birds are happily going about their business locally, and the skies overhead are filled with groups of turkey vultures. It seems they are migrating northward, and stopping over in my area for the night. Every few days another small group of turkey vultures can be seen spiraling around nearby peaks, or if late in the day, down by the Kern River.
