We've had an oriel pair hanging around this year, and I hope they'll be back next year and will learn that the orange sitting in our yard is safe and tasty.
A couple of weeks ago I kept hearing a loud chittering that I didn't recognize. Once I figured out where it was coming from, I grabbed the binoculars, and behold! It was a baby Downey woodpecker. (sorry for blurriness--I had to put it on manual focus and the parents kept jumping around the tree)
The neighbors' cherry tree didn't have a chance with a flock of Cedar Waxwings in the area!
