 Dear Brenda,

I loved your pictures of the Western Tanager.  Could you tell me where 
you can by the jelly feeders. I would love to get one.

Thanks, Carolyn Heaton

Hello Everyone,

Last night we had a WESTERN TANAGER visit our yard.  He was 
particularly enthralled with the jelly feeder.  I had just (over) 
filled it and he couldn't quite decide the best way to approach it.


All pictures were taken by my lovely husband through the screen door so 
the clarity is not super, but they are worth a look.

Our PINE SISKINS are back.  The EVENING GROSBEAK brought a lady friend 
(and isn't she dull looking compared to him!)


There are just so many.  Every day we see a new bird. It has been quite 
amazing.

Enjoy the photos.

The Western Tanager learning from an Oriole.  The Orioles were not 
thrilled about sharing.

We are hoping he will stick around.  I have emptied a bit of the jelly 
out to facilitate the ease of eating.
