Ronald Acuña Jr. crushes two home runs

At least some of those bird observations could be called signs of spring. A few days later, another friend and I found one of the red-wing males clearly on territory, calling and displaying from shrubs near the viewing platform. Two other males chased around in the tree canopy, and a female foraged (possibly on emerging midges) among young sedges along the pond edge. A pine siskin pulled up a clump of alder cones, held it by one foot on the branch, where it could conveniently extract seeds from the cones. A heron perched on top of the stump next to which we had seen it on the previous visit while it made itself nearly invisible. A yellow-rumped warbler country wise email marketing list cavorted among the pond-side tree branches.

At a couple other quick stops, we added fox sparrow, golden-crowned sparrow, Townsend’s warbler, and orange-crowned warbler. And a female hummer came to the feeder at my house. Things are clearly underway!The Juneau-Douglas High School: Yadaa.at Kalé softball team swept the visiting Railbelt Conference foe Lathrop Malemutes in a Saturday doubleheader at Melvin Park, winning 6-3 and 16-1.

“I thought the girls played consistently today,” JDHS coach Lexi Razor said Saturday. “Yesterday our first game (6-3 win) we played great and our second game (11-1 loss) we only had one hit. Today we hit consistently in both games. We did have some defensive errors, but overall cleaner than our loss yesterday. The team stayed positive and talked through the games, which was a goal for us and Gwen (Nizich, junior) and Skylar (Oliva, sophomore) both did an excellent job pitching.”

In Saturday’s first game the Crimson Bears took control in the first inning as senior Tatum Billings walked, Nizich singled, senior Bryanna Eakes singled scoring Billings, and Nizich and Eakes scored on a passed ball.
