This weekend was the first time we saw either a Carolina Wren (lousy pic) and a Dark-Eyed Junco (a male) visiting our yard.
Hawks were out and about as a red-shouldered hawk followed us in the car for about 5 seconds on Youngblood Rd. He was flying even with us just up and to our right. I think grabbing a camera is the fastest way to make them fly the other way. Another hawk was perched on a tree in the median on I-70 while driving home but I figured I wanted to get home in one piece so didn't try to look for the camera as I blew right by it.
In other news the birds seemed hungry. They devoured an entire feeder full of seed in about 36 hours. A much different scene than when it was left untouched except by squirrels much of the summer.
