Birding update

 I've since added a few species to my birding list. A evening grosbeak pair and a purple finch pair came to splash in our three-tiered birdbath fountain.  the flycatcher has come back a few times. Identifying a large brown bird fly mixed us and visiting bird expert sister Nancy, so we gave up and decided it was  a young crow. It definitely lacked to the purple or gold highlights of a grackle, purple Martin or starling, and didn't match the cowbird description either.


The irresistible birdbathp

Disability has given me time for and interest in bird-watching. It offers fun and challenge to someone who has to keep a seat. Today I added a new species - the great crested flycatcher, which looks like a little  yellow/green kingfisher. So cute to see at birdbath fountain.
