They're on the move. We had our first ROSE-BREASTED GROSBEAK (male) at
our feeders this morning. Also, our WHITE-THROATED SPARROW numbers seem
to have dropped off overnight. Only counted 20 or so thus far today
(45+ yesterday). We now have 2 WHITE-CROWNS. It's nice to hear their
plaintive song again.
I was amused to watch 2 male HOUSE FINCH flitting (dancing?) up and down
at each other on our roof, while a female sat next to them appearing to
be totally uninterested in their shenanigans. If I were to substitute
members of our own species in this play, I can imagine the female
thinking to herself, "You guys are weird!"
