Here, our crows tend to go somewhere in the morning, then come back later. Unless they have a nest/youngster. Then they stay and feed him, later teaching him to follow them and learn the ropes. They hate it when their parents to do that!

How cool about the Martin!

We don't have roadrunners in this part of the state, but definitely have woodpeckers. They are very cool!

Nice smaller birds!

So, the plural is titmouses? Interesting!

Do your jays mimic the calls of the hawks? Ours do. I had to learn to tell them apart!

It all sounds lovely! :-)

Yes, droughts take their toll. I hope that the trees have found their stride finally.

I'm sorry about Charlie's problem coming back.

Have a nice week!
