Ibis

I had no sooner written the post below when Carlita came to the feeder (I always hear the cardinals before I see them). I went to the widow to look, and there was an ibis in the yard!

Do you have ibis's where you live?

Lack-o-posts

Sorry I haven't been as active on here! My birding is severely limited to the feeders out front these days. My 10yo nephew is visiting from California, and he's never seen a cardinal! I told him that if he gets up early enough, he can see one at the feeder. This was met with a polite smile. ;-) So far, he's seen a female but not a male.
