About 4 Barn Swallows arrived today at their traditional summer home in
our barns. We had begun to worry that we would not see them this year.

After a delightful early morning with Josh Snodgrass and a robust group of over

of Combs and McCarriger Rds between Lodi and Ovid. Got over there at 10:45
where the two birders present reported last seeing it at

could be a Philadelphia video. May or may not have gotten lousy photos to
An FOY hummingbird carefully (urgently?) foraging along my gooseberry bushes an
hour ago so the FOY feeders are now out. Not sure if male or female. Distant
and watched without binocs.
Unexpected white-crowned sparrow under the feeders.
