Good news, Corin. The least invasive approach is always the best!

As, Hair says, we are awash in good news! Today, as I was going out to the car, a young pheasant hen was strolling along the sidewalk just like she belonged here! We live in downtown, she was miles from her habitat!! Hope she finds her way home before grey cat finds her. It was cool though.

And I was just starting to fix dinner and saw a rose-breasted grosbeak, guess they remembered the place from last year's migration. They are so beautiful and we only see them during migration.

It takes so little to make me happy

Following on the ‘awash’ with newz - have you checked the radar? or looked out the window? Appears more rain/thunder/lightning heading our way.

I just looked up a Google image of a rose breasted grosbeak, and it looks like a bird I saw this evening when SirKit and I were walking. It was about the size of the house wrens we have around, and it had a beautiful red head and throat that was more blue red than a robin’s breast which is more orange-red
