Good Morning, just a quick note from the Lake Erie Islands.  Summer must be winding down.  This AM I had a Canada Warbler resting and eating in our trumpet vine.  He stayed for about 1/2 hour before moving on.  During the week we had a Blackpoll Warbler, male and all alone.  We have been setting a small plate of sunflower seeds on our back porch near our table, and the chickadees and titmice have become very used to having breakfast with us.  But we also have a hummer feeder close by and the male hummer is definitely territorial when he is there to feed.  This morning at the sunflowers was a red breasted nuthatch.  We have several white breasted but this was our first red.  Did not seem afraid because we were close by.  Will try to snap a pic.
