At least two killdeer vocalizing in the corn stubble next to my house in Fairlee (CT River valley) this AM. Could be headed farther north, though early migrants tend to loiter here for several days at least. Earliest recorded sighting in my 21 years in the valley-

It's not
by chance that the dark center of human eye, the pupil, is actually an
empty hole through which the world becomes known to us. Likewise, in a
spiritual sense, the I is the empty center through which we see
everything. It's revealing that such a threshold is called the pupil,
for it is only when we are emptied of all noise and dreams of ego that
we become truly teachable. -Mark Nepo
