It's a Conclave!
-
We have eleven pairs of Cardinals at our feeders right now. Amazing. the most we've ever seen is seven.
-
That's very cool. Whatever is in your feeders must be pretty damn tasty.
I don't think I've ever had more than four hanging around our yard at one time. These days we hear one or two of them every day at dawn and at dusk. And the juncos are feasting on the sweet autumn clematis seeds.
-
Haven't seen many juncos this year, and not as many titmice.
-
Best winter bird sighting here - two hawks in the front yard. One was having his squirrel tartare meal in the driveway while the other one watched.
-
Unusual to see two together like that unless they're young siblings.
Saw a big old red shouldered hawk this afternoon swooping low over my back yard a few times. Gorgeous. Cosmo the new kitten saw him too and was quite interested.
