Yup..Orioles are in northern Anderson county also. I heard a wood thrush
this morning down in the big woods. And.I have several hummers buzzing
around.
As an aside..none of my Ash trees have leaves yet. Most of the other trees
are just starting. Leaf out seems awfully late this year. I reckon the
birds who have gotten here are wondering where the heck the leaves are.

The orioles arrived today and the white-crowned sparrows are still here.
A pair of phoebes are nesting on a rafter in our old barn. We are parking
our tractor outside for the duration so we don't disturb them too much. This
is the first time we have had them here that we know of, but the peewee's
didn't return and we have always had them.
Five baby bluebirds will be fledging at the end of the week if all goes
well.
We also have between 6 and 7 pairs of martins. We used to have many more but
our neighbor, who has a small lake, has recently put up two houses which are
full. We think she stole our birds. :)
