Still waiting

No action yet on the backyard.

The birds seem to like the sun on the feeder. A couple of jays did their best but they outweigh the counterweight. Cardinals, chickadees, titmice and finches came to breakfast.

At lunch, insurance came to assess and now the tree removal workers are here. And now the trees are gone.

A large dragonfly with black eyes, clear wings and a steel-blue abdomen has been using the perches I put out. I noticed the sorts of places they perched and put bamboo plant stakes out for them. It worked - free mosquito control!

Late afternoon, I saw the eagle again. Maybe it has been around but the trees blocked my view before?
