Wonky wildlife in my yard.
Today there has been tons of wildlife flying and poking around our yard. With my madd (but still growing) bird identification skillz I’ve been able name most of them. Just today Devon and I have seen:
A couple fledgeling Northern Flickers (members of the woodpecker family)
Some hungry Eastern Gray Squirrels
Clumsy and playful American Robins, including one momma bird w/some worms in her mouth….
A pointy tailed Bewick’s Wren
A shockingly colorful male Western Tanager
Uber noisy American Crows
A perching Black-Capped Chickadee
And a bunch of other birds swooping too fast for me to id.
But yeah. Pretty crazy. Lots of happy critters in our neighborhood. Yeah! It must mean that spring/summer is here!!!
