Lots of juvenile bird activity these days: hairy and downy woodpeckers, rose-breasted grosbeaks, robins, crows, chipping sparrows, cowbirds, cedar waxwings, and tree swallows. 

The female phoebe is sitting on her second round of eggs - they should hatch any day now.  The cardinals and catbirds are making regular feeding runs.  I saw a yellow-bellied sapsucker chick stick its head out of the nest hole for the first time 2 days ago - hope to get a photo today.

Our 2 dozen goldfinches are all over the serviceberry trees.  They eat the berries before they are quite ripe, getting a jump on the larger birds that will devour them soon.

I've gotten into photographing butterflies and moths since I found someone who can help me identify them.  Stay tuned for lots more of them.

The female deer have had their fawns by now, so hopefully we will be seeing fawns romping in our yard soon.
