Ethyl invited a friend to lunch. 🤦‍♂️ I had never seen Edith in our yard before; she followed close behind Ethyl but kept a very respectful distance from me. Ethyl was her usual self, whining until I pulled some feed from the songbird feeder and held it out for her.

The neighbors were aghast; while Ethyl is comfortable exploring the neighborhood, we have sufficient evidence the other hens couldn't find their way home if they so much as crossed the street.

I was putting together an apple pie when the quail stopped by.
They are a favorite visitor.
I was up to my elbows in apples but I got a couple of photos through the window.
Summer wanted to greet them personally but I said not today.

The jays have learned how to signal that the birdbath needs water, standing on the concrete pigeon or at the lip and staring expectantly at me. What's funny is how polite they are about it. When they descend into the yard they screech loud enough to wake the dead. And when the chickadees want the feeder refilled, I never hear the end of it.

| still can't tell if this is Jack or Jill. Their spouse was in the silk tree keeping watch.

UA🇺🇦: Коли ми обирали ділянку під дім, той факт, що просто за нашою оселею зупиняються перепочити перелітні птахи, був для мене достатньо важливим.
Навіть коли ще немає зелені й за вікном сіро й нудно, спостерігання за великими птахами, що блукають серед сухої трави, якось трохи примирює з погодою і з усім іншим :)
