Congrats to the Stalter family. Scarlet Tanagers were all over Fairmont Cemetery tonight. I was stunned to get 5 male in one photo but the Stalter's did even better. Total of at least 8 male and 5 female Scarlet Tanagers. What stunning birds flying around and sitting on the grave markers and sitting in the trees at eye level and lower.
