It is a delightful season for us. All the birds and bees are in mating mode. I love the songs. Each day the leaf buds get a little bigger. We'll lose our sunsets, but nature unfurls.
Phoebe is proudly atop the purple pencil. It's a great vantage point. They should hatch in a couple of days.
Here is Momma phoebe. Tucked in the nest in the corner. We had ice on the bird bath Monday morning.
The lilac tree is budding up, and the rose-breasted grosbeak was bug hunting. Bless their hearts.
You can see why so many bird counts should be done in May. They are breeding, singing in top form, and you can see them between the leaves.
Merlin is giving me some valuable information.
The female was nearby. Hard to see her, but she is in the upper right. of the photo. Trust me! They are well-camouflaged.

I have found a bird new to me. 'Lifer' for someone who volunteers in hospice work just doesn't sound right to me!
Cinnamon and I were out front and I heard a bird. Next we had a towhee who visited. Merlin told me what it was. I am always dubious!
It came to the bird feeder, but was shy!
Also heard: Common Yellowthroat!
This bird eludes me. It looked more like a green heron on my iPhone. I wondered if it was a mistake, but it is a small one. I looked it up!
👂Listen, because there is no way I could spot it!
Yay, SPRING!
