Hi Tweeters,

The clueless crows trying to nest on the underside of
balcony wised up and are nesting in a tree crotch
across the street. The young Robins fledged over the
weekend. They left the nest to the Windermere Cup
mayhem, what an introduction to life!

The fisheries started releasing the the juvenile
salmon, attracting a large group of Great Blue Herons
eager to gobble them up. One heron prefered the
easiest fishing staying right over the exit from the
pond. That just doesn't seem fair.

Only one migrant, Wilson's Warbler, Mon and Tue.
Osprey soaring over the hospital. Saw a very cute
youngster muskrat near Agua Verde. Must have just
been kicked out from home as it was pretty small.
