In the last 24 hours without leaving the property of the friends we are staying with I've seen:
Eastern Bluebirds (nesting)
Red-Tailed Hawks (pair)
Northern Cardinal (pair)
Baltimore Oriole (passing overhead)
Sandhill Cranes (passing overhead)
Red-Winged Blackbirds
Ducks and Gesse galaore.
Juncos and Chickadees at the feeders

Kathy claims the first Eastern Bluebird sighting for 2007.

Notice the nesting material in it's beak.

Spring attractions.

These Finches and Cardinals are in spring mode. Of the hundreds of photos I've taken of Cardinals in our neighborhood this is the first photo I've taken with the male and female in the same frame. Don't miss the female in the lower right corner. Most often they are in different trees often a half a block away.
