  1. Your new home is certainly in a great spot, Kathie. It's nice to see some of the birds I saw in Costa Rica in their breeding plumage too.

  2. I couldn't believe all the nesting going on around your place! That was a real treat to see. I never really paid attention to any of it until this year. Now I see it all around me everywhere I go. The levels of birding:)
