Mudflats on the main pond are looking good--could use a little more  rain.
Birds are coming into the "shoreline" much closer the last two  days.

Two new sightings happened for us this past week.  We had a  hummingbird
taking a dust bath in our backyard and watched a willow flycatcher  feed a young
song sparrow at the North Park on Old Springfield Rd.  What  interesting
surprises you can find while birding!
