After a strong thunderstorm with some small hail and lot of rain I was delighted with a mini-fallout of neotropical birds (plus my neighborhood catbirds): a female Rose-breasted Grosbeak and 2 male Black-headed Grosbeak; 4+ Yellow-rumped Warblers (more than I have seen on our Riverwalk all week); several singing Yellow Warblers; 2 Broad-tailed Hummingbirds; two male and 1 female Lazuli Buntings and 1 male Indigo Bunting (that have been around for a week). I was surprised to also see several Pine Siskins as I hadn't seen any for awhile and they should be moving to their breeding territories. Since it was around 6 pm and it was still some light rain from cloudy skies I did not get any reasonable photos of those birds; however, both members of my neighborhood Gray Catbird pair came to visit and foraged less than 20 feet away so I have posted a few photos of them on my Birds and Nature <http://BirdsAndNature.blogspot.com> blog.
