[Douglbirds] Hummer!!

[Lisa Crispin]

Gosh, we hadn't seen hummers in so long, we took down the feeder.  Maybe I'd
better put it back up.

This week there was a huge flock of red wing blackbirds in our backyard.
I've only ever seen a couple before on rare occasions.  Do they migrate
through?  We also suddenly have crowds of all types of jays.  There are
always a few around, but I've never seen this many.  Oh, and a huge flock of
grackles was hanging around last weekend.  Interesting to see birds in such
large numbers.
