Spring means mulberries in my backyard. I saw my first rubythroat hummingbird( male) this week. My favorites so far are the orchard orioles and the indigo buntings. I also love the antics of the cedar waxwings as they swarm and descend the Morus. Locals include robins, bluejays, mockingbirds, white winged and mourning doves, house sparrows, house finches, cardinals, starlings and a possible bronzed cowbird.
