Dawn and I have had lots of birds today - the usual crowd - titmouse, chickadee, cardinal, mourning dove, song sparrows, Carolina wren, goldfinch, blue jays starlings and crows. We've also had some special visitors - Coopers Hawk, 5 rose-breasted grosbeaks at once, black-throated green and a new yard bird, a scarlet tanager. No rain here but it's cool. One female ruby throat still hanging on. Don Carrier Bristol
