[ByrdBrainBBW@xxxxxxx]

May 1st brought the first hummer to my yard, I believe a female 
Ruby-throated. Then, a little while later, my first Rose Breasted Grosbeak 
arrived.
May 2nd brought an entire flock of Rose Breasted Grosbeaks, that hopefully 
will hang around and fuel up for their trek further north.  But the highlight 
of 
this day is the return of "my" Redheaded Woodpeckers! This is the fourth 
season they have returned, to spend the summer here, and raise a family. It's 
just 
wonderful to observe them close up, along with their young each season. Like 
clockwork, the return within a few days of the same date each spring, and head 
for a warmer climate each September.

Also the Southern Flying Squirrels have returned, and are coming to eat out 
of my hand again. If anyone is interested in seeing them, I'd love to share 
these wonderful little wild creatures.
