Pretty Quiet These Days

Things are pretty quiet around the property these days. I haven't been down in the woods in a long time, mainly because of the mosquitoes and because I've been very busy. The juvenile bluebirds continue to feed in our front yard. The Eurasian Collared-Doves have obviously had a successful breeding season. The numbers of ECDo at my feeders has increased by six in the past couple of weeks. I still occasionally see a Mourning Dove and a couple of Inca Doves at my feeders. The House Sparrow numbers have gone up, which I'm not excited about at all. It is fun to look out and see the cardinals feeding their newly fledged youngsters.

It won't be long befire the hummingbirds show up again! Just another month or so and I'll be mixing sugar water every day. Come out and see them this year!
