With the warmer weather and southwest winds, the white-crowned sparrows 
who have been hanging out since the beginning of May decided to depart for 
points north.  But, a Baltimore oriole stopped by and checked out the bird 
bath.  We aren't that close to their usual habitat but occasionally they 
show up.

And finally, this afternoon, our first RT hummingbird stopped by the 
feeders.

Happy spring!
