Good heavens! I forgot to post my sighting of the rose-breasted grosbeak that has been hanging out these last 2 weeks! So cool!
The squirrels are getting rambunctious so I need to keep the deer corn loaded in the squirrel station; keeps them from trying to make the 10 foot leap onto my feeders and scaring the bajeebers out of our feathered friends.
The doves are amazingly territorial, with their raised-wing-threatening-displays-- it's also interesting that the sparrows are not only "invisible" to the dove, I've actually seen an dove step on and over sparrows who are feeding in order to attack another dove that landed on feeding platform.
Hello?? Sharing? Baaaad bird. Oh well, natural selection has its ways.
I've not seen the cedar waxwings in a week; they left with the cool weather I guess.
I saw a female ruby-throat hummingbird this last weekend, but my nectar is mostly full when I change it with a fresh batch these days-- two weeks ago they emptied it of nectar.
All my winged migratory friends are going away these days; I guess that is an old cycle-- until we see each other again in September, right?
