Well, taking it easy with summer here, enjoying the backyard and whatever comes around. Not the best shots sharing here but gives you an idea of the antics on my chunk of land. Be safe and see you all again soon enough!
It's not a bird, but a fun new addition to the surroundings, and as far as I can tell, there are at least two now. In 8 years, I have only seen one Chipmunk around the house and he disappeared within a week. These guys have been around for maybe a month now.
The fledging of the Starlings was a real pain. Bullying buggers making life for everyone else stressful to say the least.
But I have a few bold Red-wing Blackbirds who come in and kick some bird butt!
About 6 Common Grackles around lately, young'uns included, who also do a number on the pesky Starlings, in order to feed their babies. Too bad these guys don't have a song though...
And when the Starlings aren't bugging, they beat eat each other up too. That's feather in the one's mouth and it sure seems the other guy is high tailing it outta there after losing a few.
A lot of Squirrel brawling lately as well. Black Fur and Baby Grey are tearing it up! Black Fur has been working on the drama faces as you can see. I hope to post a series with commentary in the coming weeks.
His face is going to freeze like that if he keeps it going.
We also got Chickadees suddenly appearing again this week with young. Blue Jays and Cardinals as well. The Red-wings have been bringing their young since last week.

A birth certificate shows we were born. A death certificate shows we died. Pictures show we live.
