Northern Cardinal-3, Crow-4, White breasted Nuthatch, Dark eyed Junco-1, Black capped Chickadee-4, Downy Woodpecker-2
Last weekend, when I went out in the yard, it seemed devoid of all life. The temperature was about 60 degrees colder. No birds were out and about. Today I saw signs of life again. A male cardinal chased a female cardinal from the spruce tree, to the oak tree, back to the spruce tree, and to the maple tree. At that point she circled the spruce tree from the bottom to the top. The male couldn't see her spiraling and he went into the branches at the bottom and waited for her there. They were flying full throttle like the jet planes on Star Wars. She probably just wanted to catch her breath. It's nice that it's not deathly cold out today.
