Unfortunately have to be at workstation today, but step out onto the patio from time to time and look up. Aside from the usual neighborhood birds, a Summer Tanager has started singing in the neighborhood this morning. We've had them in the neighborhood quite regularly the last several years. And a small flock of 7 Franklin's Gulls few over riding the strong south winds. This puts me at 172 for my patch.
