I just spotted our first pair of ruby-crowned kinglets in the old hackberry tree outside the kitchen window. They are delightfully quiet, busy little birds. I forget how much I enjoy watching them until they come back each year around the holidays.
Winter has arrived.

A belated welcome back to blogging. I checked in often during the mid-year, but nothing was up. I saw on my stats page a click-through from one of your earlier posts and was delighted to see that you had returned.
I’ve regretfully only captured a quick glimpse of a red cardinal just before Thanksgiving. I haven’t seen another bringer of winter since then.
