I've seen that many in my back yard in one day. I expect more soon: apparently a pair has built a nest in a big bush near the corner of the house�at least that's the best explanation I could come up for why I saw a male and a female taking turns raising a fuss right outside the window the other day when the weather turned cool enough for me to open some windows and my cats were sitting on the window sill looking out . . . -- Ronn! :) God bless America, Land that I love! Stand beside her, and guide her Thru the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, To the oceans, white with foam� God bless America! My home, sweet home. -- Irving Berlin (1888-1989)
