Yesterday brought new yard birds:  Rose Breasted Grosbeaks, a Scarlet Tanager 
and a Palm Warbler. 



Both the t anager and the w arbler were visitors to the bird creek.  The 
tanager seemed not to have a care in the world as he was splashing around.  
After one bath, he would preen and come back for more...making a bigger scene 
than he had previously.  He did this at least three times after I had noticed 
him.  The warbler came in for a bath as well and left after a good 
dipping....too many birds by that time to stay too long. 



Not to be out "oooooo'd" by the Scarlet Tanager , the resident Summer Tanager 
showed up later   - flitting around and doing his tuk calls .
