A brown-headed cowbird and his mate stopped by the feeders today. This is the first we’ve seen in our yard. We had a plethora of black-headed grosbeaks and their young at the feeders today too.

Who needs a gutter cleaning service when you have Steller’s Jays!? I heard an usual noise against the house today, so I looked out the 2nd story bedroom window to investigate. To my surprise, there was a Steller’s Jay, pulling moss and leaves out of the rain gutter and tossing it over the side to the ground. Perhaps he just decided to pay us back for putting out all those yummy peanuts!
