    I had an excellent coincidence about 30 years ago. I was in Dallas (from Atlanta) on business. After checking in to the hotel, my boss, with whom I was sharing the room, was just going to stay in, saying he was tired. I decided to check out the property. Walked into the bar and Herb Albert and the TB had just started a show!!!
    I had often heard them growing up as Dad may have had more of their albums than any other artist. Great show. What a night!

    Had a doctor appointment earlier today and there's a record shop a few blocks away. Couldn't help going over there afterwards and buying some vinyl!

    Nice. They (rose breasted grosbeaks) showed up here last week.
    These did, too (though I took this photo this morning). This guy apparently identifies as a hummingbird ;)

    We are running hot, even for Arizona. About 10-12 degrees above normal this weekend. The pool was a perfect 85 degrees. More triple digits this week in Tucson, which means mid 90's for us.

    That's a pretty bird!

    We have this tall wild cherry tree behind the cottage that had a branch break off from a hurricane a long time ago. Through the years, birds have pecked away at the part of the branch that was left and has been nesting in it off and on for years now.

    We learned about Great Crested Flycatchers after seeing them nesting in it over and over. There is another pair in it this year. :)
    https://youtu.be/UPwNUuii-ik

    They are RARE birds to see. They don't come down from the tree canopies if they can help it. So they don't come to feeders or feed on the ground. They just feed on bugs and things up high in the trees. Ours have that distinct referee's whistle sound for their chirping. It sounds just like a referee's whistle! Very RARE. But if you hear a referee whistle up high in a tree, take a look for that distinct crest on top of their heads. And that yellowish belly.


    We also have the privilege of having migrating Cedar Waxwings stopping once or twice a year. They stay up in trees also but they do come down a bit to feed on Mulberries. That's a short bushy tree with thousands of big berries in the summer. They like to flock from tree to tree for some reaso. here is a bunch that decided to come down into our Silver Maple tree one year. With the berries, they will pass a berrie back and forth between themselves. FUNNY to watch!

    Cedar Waxwings whistle too. But their chirps are med. length one tone whistles. But when a group are all whistling, you can't help but hear it it's so loud! They fly in groups only. Some med. like 100 or bigger, like 200. We love the avian visitors around here.
