the cries of kestrals
as street sweepers pass
spring arrives
I know one of the traditional signs of spring for many people is sighting their first robin of the year. For me however, it’s hearing my first kestral “klee-klee-kleeing” over the evergreen trees in our neighbourhood. Another sure sign of spring in the city is the appearance of street sweeping equipment out collecting the remains of a winter’s worth of sand. This morning I heard both things from my studio.
