This morning was an absolutely wonderful to be outside poking along
the urban 'wilds'. Besides the usual suspects, I surveyed the
following noteworthy species:
Gray Catbird (2)
Yellow Warbler (1)
House Wren (3)
Barn Swallow (5)
Yellow-rumped Warbler (several)
Wood Duck (7)
Also of interest was a Cooper's hawk and an American crow in an
intense aerial dogfight!
Good birding,

forethought of grief... For a time I rest in the grace of the world,
and am free." --Wendell Berry
