My friends on the 8th

There's happiness when seeing old friends. I suspect the cardinal and catbird know me from previous spring times.  Very trusting. The cardinals have an active nest. Won't intrude.
 

Catbird will nest here, but hard to locate their  nest.

Downstairs mixture

I've met Imps in the garden, but none as brazen as this kid. Pretty with flowers, but more interested in lens. Squirrel selfie?
 

A West End Avenue first- a wood thrush. It stuck around for one day.

The downy is checking out trees in back garden.

One of the first nests in a long time not incorporating covid masks. Incredible weaving.

Two new pigeon hatchlings.   Alas, I won't  be able to follow their progress,
