[TN-Bird] Showtime for the Red and the Black!

This is has been a banner week down in the valley just north of Radnor Lake.  
We've had our largest influx of Red-breasted Rosebeaks in years (6-8 at a 
time, sometimes more), along with a solitary but frequent Red-headed 
Woodpecker.  
Throw in the usual measure of Northern Cardinals and you have a riot of red 
and black--with great flashes of white!  What a show!
We've also enjoyed watching a pair of Eastern Phoebes on our back porch hatch 
out their brood of five, which both parents are now busy feeding.

Our recent arrivals include Wood Thrush, Great Crested Flycatcher, Chimney 
Swift, Indigo Bunting, and Orchard Oriole.  As of today, April 30, our 
White-throated Sparrows are still here.
