We had a very hot summer this year, and there were many reports of dead birds being discovered in people’s gardens, esp Pittas, which are migratory.
Maybe if there was more water around these birds could’ve survived…
Then there is the problem of mosquitoes breeding in standing water!

@Chris thanks a lot! I am patiently awaiting the fall hummingbird migration

@Gwen a water source in the yard is a must! I love my little corner of paradise, and so do the birds!

@Kyle they are very fun to watch. They truly are clowns. If you come to California, you are welcome to visit and I’ll show you many Acorn Woodpeckers

Beautiful shots, Larry, although I have to admit the first is my favorite. Acorn woodpecker is on my "reeeeeally want to see someday" list! .-= Kyle´s last blog ..Willet Stay or Willet Go? =-.
