The Incidental Day 5/23

4:52 AM: Whip-poor-will wakes us up. Shari, in her half-sleep, thinks it's a car alarm going off. The tendrils of the city never truly release their grasp.

5:43 AM: Shari thinks she hears an owl. "No, that's a cuckoo." "What kind?" "Yellow-billed."

7:06 AM: I step outside onto the patio as the hummingbird buzzes by.

1:35 PM: Wild Turkeys in the middle of the road on our way back from the drugstore--the notorious "Gang of Four."


3:59 PM:Great Crested Flycatchers in the side yard. One is a male, the other I don't know--either male & female looking for a nesting hole (plenty of dead trees nearby) or two males vying for territory?
