I walked around the yard this morning checking out the birds.
A listing is as follows:
Peewees - 8
Great crested flycatchers - 4
Ruby throated hummingbirds - at least 7 (I observed a hummingbird harrassing
a perched house sparrow and later a hummingbird was chasing 2 goldfinches
thru the air. Feisty little devils.)
Goldfinches - many
Cedar waxwings - 12. (Yesterday, I had a flock of 25 fly over.)
Female CANADA WARBLER. I have not seen one before, but I had looks at two
different times.
Female YELLOW WARBLER -1
Red eyed vireo - 1
Chipping sparrow - 8
Mockingbird - 3
Flicker - 1
Red-bellied woodpecker -1
Mourning doves - many
Red shouldered hawk - flyover
The cardinals in the yard really look ratty.
