We've had the usual complement of both Tufted Titmouse (4-6, with at least 2
juveniles) and Carolina Chickadees (4-8, with at least 2 juveniles) in our
yard this year. Could be more. It's hard to tell them apart. They're very
active right now. Lots of each down on the C & O Canal, too.
Crows are seen, heard all around us.
The Baltimore Orioles seem to be gone (or are very quiet).
Only heard 1 Yellow-billed Cuckoo on the Canal yesterday, too.
Lot of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, too (something like 6+, with at least 2
distinguishable juveniles).
