number of young birds.
Other birds in my yard : chicadees, three blue birds, a few =

(juveniles perhaps too) every day this past week at the backyard =
feeders, along with many American Goldfinches, Song Sparrows, =
White-throated Sparrows, BC Chickadees, Hairy & Downy Woodpeckers, =
Northern Flickers, numerous Warblers but they move so quickly, I am not =
sure what kind, American Robins, Grackles and of course, way too many, =
Starlings, and, one lone Gray Catbird. No Nuthatches, though.
