that time of year
when most of
the birds have
gone on to cooler
spaces ...
adult bluebirds abandoned
the eggs in the nesting box..
the young bluebirds
from a previous clutch
still return for a quick bath.
cardinals are still around
as are the blackbirds
and
mourning doves
( as always.. click on photos to enlarge )
.. and two of the hummers
still appear
infrequently
for a quick drink
