Still have a couple of White Crowned Sparrows hanging around. They usually migrate north by now, but saw this one late this afternoon below the feeders. Looked out earlier today and observed one of my many squirrels helping himself to the seed in one of my feeders. I'm always impressed with their ability to find a way to get to the feed. They are very persistent and ingenious. Also had several of my Northern Cardinals in the yard today. Won't be too long before I should start seeing some of their offspring joining them.
Have also started seeing more Brown-headed Cowbirds in the past couple of weeks than I usually see in my backyard. Here's one of three males that were feeding on the ground this afternoon.
The Eastern Phoebes have returned again this Spring and added on to their old nest under the eave of my front porch and are already roosting on eggs that will hatch in the next couple of weeks. Snapped this picture tonight with one of them on the nest.

see how much fun it is to have a blog? you're doing awesome!
Michelle's camera takes pretty good pictures. She is an awesome daughter to leave her camera in the hands of her Father. Hope he doesn't lose it. Then he would have to buy two.
Michelle is actually one of the nicest people I know. I feel lucky to have her as a big sis. Wish we saw eachother more often!
