Long Weekend Visitors
Richelle Hunter
We hope everyone had a fabulous long weekend!! Not sure if the storms brought more birds to the feeders, but there certainly were lots around! It was great to welcome several Baltimore Orioles & Rose-breasted Grosbeaks along with the regulars - Downy & Red-bellied Woodpeckers, Cardinal pair, Chickadees, House Finches, Goldfinches, and others. We were serenaded for most of the weekend by the lovely sounds of the Cedar Waxwings while the Wrens also provided some sweet tunes. We love how the Orioles continue to announce their arrival at the nectar & jelly feeders....always know when they're around, that's for certain!! It was fun also to watch & listen to the Red-bellied Woodpeckers - "Dad" swooping through the garden to the feeders, with a newly-fledged cutie following, squawking & squeaking closely behind!
Baltimore Oriole - Lovin' that grape jelly!
