Afternoon all,
 I spent the morning working outside in the sun near my shop (sanding a church pew), as it was just too beautiful to work inside. Hard to concentrate though, as birds kept vying for my attention. An Eastern Towhee was singing and calling all morning from just over the fence in my neighbors yard, and I saw my FOY E. Phoebe just over the fence in my yard. Lots of overhead migrating gulls, presumably Ring-billeds, all morning. At least 3 Red-shouldered Hawks were circling (probably local birds), as were Red-tails. A Cooper's Hawk flew over too. 
Well, back to work...
