Well, it was a thrill for me -- A Black-billed Cuckoo hung around all
afternoon yesterday. That inched our window list to 110 sp. Pretty quiet around
here except for the youngsters who either don't know the words or the melody
-- or both. My wife spotted a Solitary SP on the pond two days ago. All 9 of
our ducklings made it to fly away on their own, and our Kestrels must have
flown away as soon as they went out the door. We haven't seen or heard from
them for about a week. I don't remember so many Mourning Warblers in the past.
They are very brave, watching me within a few feet while I work on the wood
pile. More vocal throughout hot summer days than I recall too.
I did see a Great Gray Owl between Buhl and MT Iron about two weeks ago.
A large bear (I mean large-400#?) helped himself to one of our feeders the
other day. I was able to get a little bit of video of him.
