    We went for a hike on the West Circle trail in the Hyde Memorial State Park a couple of miles north of our house in Santa Fe. Back at the ranger station, a group of Flycatchers were doing their thing. At first they were a bit stand-offish, but as they got used to me they came closer. That, plus a 300mm telephoto ... 😊

          A small toad has taken residence in the back yard and is driving the dog insane. He’s too quick to get a picture of.

          Birds are mostly Robins and red-wing blackbirds -very nice. Unfortunately they appear to be feeding at someone’s bird feeder and have distributed Amaranth all over the property. Tough stuff - gonna take a while to get rid of it.

            I thought houndiepaws (dog #2) was going to go right through the closed kitchen window when our resident garden bunny taunted her yesterday.

                Cool bird. I've heard them but only seen one at a distance.

                Saw my first Monarch of the year today. No picture.

                  They stop here while migrating up to around where Steve lives. Wonderful birds. We get some traveling Orioles too.

                      We get the avian kind. Again, I hear them all the time but never see them. (Sense a pattern?) We thought we were putting oranges out for them, but those seem to be for the squirrels instead.

                        I saw a Baltimore Oriole here twice, four years ago. It was the same year the Indigo Buntings showed up at the feeder. It was right after some large swath of trees were cut down along the brook across the street. I suspect they were displaced, hence why I saw them.

                          @Mik Rose Breasted Grosbeaks make regular appearances at my feeders. As do Evening Grosbeaks. Very pretty song.
