May 10!




Joan is so lucky! Today she got a male Baltimore Oriole and a pair of Evening Grosbeak! Plus a few Goldfinches.

There was a Redpoll at the Goldfinch feeder today! I thought they were all gone!

I installed a bird bath yesterday and I thoughtit would take a week or two before a bird came to it but just a few hours later as I was preparing supper, a Blue Jay came by to take a sip of water.

In the last week I've seen a few new birds! A White-Crowned Sparrow, who I thought was a White-Throated Sparrow at first, came in late afternoon and keeps coming back every day.

On Thursday when I came back from Kelly's pre-school, I looked out to see another new bird! I quickly took a few pictures and went online to look through pictures. I'm getting good at identifying my birds, it didn't take long to find the Rose-Breasted Grosbeak. :)
