Enjoying some sunshine today, the bloodroots finally started to open up this spring. With reddish sap throughout the plant, especially when root is cut, gave its common name of bloodroot.

Another bird has arrived but the Brown Thrasher wasn’t singing this morning, probably since it is still way below average and the trees are not budded out as far as when I took this picture during a warmer spring. If he was singing, his song includes imitations of other birds and over a thousand of different song types.
