Hi Everyone Recuperating from an unfortunate illness, Iım not getting out much, but things are popping around the house. Today I heard a Red-winged Blackbird singing across our suburban streetthatıs a definite first. I also saw a female Red-winged Blackbird under the feedersnot the first time ever, but unusual for here. Also, there was a male brown-headed cowbird under the feeders this morning. Not so happy about that, but I have to admit the bird, with fresh plumage, was beautiful. Where are the neighborhood cats when you want them?
