Finally some summer and sunshine!



There still have been no hummingbird's at the feeder. I notice that one of my neighbour's has taken his feeder away, perhaps because there are no hummingbirds feeding. I will check with other people.

There are still plenty of chipping sparrows as in the photo. There are regular visits by goldfinches and house sparrows as well.

Yesterday I went for a walk in the park at Shoal Lake. I did not see very much. There were a couple of robins and one kingbird. I also saw a few tree swallows and a red winged blackbird. The blackbirds who were nesting by the creek at one point seem to be gone. I guess the young are on their own already. I did see what I think was a warbler but it was so well hidden I could not identify it. On the way home I saw a killdeer by the side of the highway.
