May. 23rd, 2019 05:56 pmGiven that I'm currently catsitting for my sister and cousin in a relatively rural spot, there are MANY birds I don't get to see at the parents' house or at college that are here. Today, there's been a mated pair of cardinals, a blue jay, numerous seed foraging types, SO MANY robins, and what was likely a northern flicker that I only identified thanks to the Audubon website. (I played the calls for the cats, and they whipped around toward my computer, so there's definitely a northern flicker in the area even if that was mistaken identity.)
Also, I found a six-leaf clover and a five-leaf clover yesterday, with two more six-leaf, one more five-leaf, and three four-leaf clovers today, all in one corner of a small backyard that runs on the power lines. This was in about five minutes of searching yesterday and seven minutes today. I'm a little scared of how good at this I'm getting. I also REALLY need to filk this skill at some point.
Supposedly, there's a fox in the area as of a couple of days ago, but I haven't seen it yet. I know there are a few herds of deer; I've seen those before, just not this visit. I have, however, seen the resident under-porch chipmunk, in addition to too many squirrels to count.
