There is a little crop of fledgling Chickadees livening up the yard
lately. Very active and vocal. One little cutie stopped to sunbathe on a
porch step. They are such great little birds! If I had a good camera I
would have taken a picture.
Next year I'll have to investigate the property more frequently to see
if I can find out where any of the birds are nesting. I found a
beautiful little cup nest on a low branch of a young white spruce. If
I'd been looking around earlier in the season maybe I could have spied
some nestlings. I know we usually have Catbirds, Robins, Song Sparrows,
and Common Yellowthroats nesting here but I wonder how many other
species might be around and about.
Next summer, less rehearsing, more birding!
