These guys have finally returned to my yard so fall migration is in full swing. The sparrow flock now has house, chipping, white crested, and the white throated!
This poor fella flew into the door and sat stunned on the steps for about 2 minutes and almost fell over, but much to my relief he flew over to the maple tree and eventually made his way back to the ground to feed.
I almost had a heart attack though when I went out to fill the feeders, in mid fill a magpie flew up (about 2 feet away) and looked at me like I was dinner. I said hello, he turned his head and I realized he'd come for the fermenting strawberries I was adding grapes to.
It's shaping up to be a great bird day!
