Rain, rain, good for farmers!
We are getting a fairly steady rain this morning. It will give moisture for the crops. I include a photo of a couple of American goldfinches at my feeder. They seem quite plentiful so far this season.
I do not seen any remaining redpolls. There are lots of chipping sparrows. The last two days I have seen a few house sparrows every day as well. I think that the sparrow with a white striped crown is a white crowned sparrow after all. The ones I have seen really do not have a white throat rather it is grey. I also found that the sparrow does go through this area and breeds further north.
There are still starlings about and I glimpsed a northern flicker in the yard this morning.
