Another Feeder Watch Update

I have seen today:
Blue Jay
House Sparrow

And, speaking of Pathfinders, we didn't have it today. Don't ask me why.

Groundhog!

I now can add to my list. I have seen a ground hog. I am a happy girl.

The next update on Mammals and Birds

I have seen a lot, I mean A LOT, of house sparrows today. Other than that, I have seen:
Blue Jay
Mourning Dove
Squrriel
Black Squrriel(I guess that does not count as another species, but I have seen one today)

Red-shouldered Hawk

We heard and then saw a Red-shoulderd Hawk during tennis class today! Here is a link that you can use to find out information about them, and you can hear what it sounds like.

Bird Feeder Watch Update

So far to day I have seen:
Mourning dove
Cardinal
House finch(male)
House sparrow

I hope the cat goes away for it has been making trouble.

Mammals Update

On the way home from brass practice(Father, not me) I saw four deer. One was running across the road just as we were coming close. Father did not hit him, thankfully. The other three were in the grass by some houses. I think the people that live there are lucky to have deer in their own front yard!

There is going to be an eclipse tonight. I hope you see it!

So Funny!

That was funny! A Eastern Gray was hanging on the bell-block. We all stood inside and laughed our heads off. It was the first time that had happened! I hope he comes back.
