1/ Our first of the year

parking lot 

Thursday night around 10:00 p.m. we heard 2 Barred Owls from the house.

Friday morning stopped by our urban neighborhood Cooper's Hawk
nest.  Doing fine.  Could see the white-tipped tail of one bird on the
nest.  The other stopped by the nest while we watched.  Bringing food 
to mate,  perhaps?  Couldn't tell.  

Had up to two male and one female Rose-breasted Grosbeaks 
at the feeder last week.  Have not seen them Friday or Saturday.
