    What was your best bird today!

    Today we also saw a male and female towhee in our woods. We also have a male and female rose breasted grosbeak, and have been seeing a number of yellow rumped warblers and a palm warbler. But our best today was the house wrens are back singing like crazy.

    Gotta love those Cardinal pairs, especially this time of year. We put up a Bluebird house for the first time this year and had a pair flying around it yesterday. I sure hope they make that there home.
