I was happy that a pair of House sparrow were building a nest over several days, then I didn't see them for a couple of days, I think this is why, pain in the butt female squirrel was in the box and chewing the wood, note the chips she brought out of the house and put on top of it, I watched her do this many times. I wonder if she will have kits in there?
I was delight to see the return of a pair of Western Tanagers, they are such pretty birds. I am very annoyed at the Crows, they keep eating all the suet and the Tanagers really like it.
Saw a few House Finches and several Red Crossbills. Annoying Ravens came and scared them away.
Thirsty Evening Grosbeak, look how far he stuck his beak in the water.
Beside those there were Cowbirds, Black birds, Gold finches, Pine Siskins, and White-crowned sparrows, the annoying Ravens, Crows, Sharp-shinned hawks and the Cooper's Hawk. I did enjoy watching the Crows gang up on the cooper's hawk and drive it from the yard
