a little slow, with the weather on the cooler side and less bird traffic. My hope of a hummingbird deluge (even one a day would be just that) has not fulfilled so far. They are making themselves very rare this season. I think the male Orioles started migration already but there are still females and youngsters, and Grosbeaks visiting the jelly. And along with them, the smaller birds are returning. Much to my surprise, there are Chickadees on the jelly every day now. I have been busy with work and had little time for photo editing, so here are just two fun shots from the jelly pole trailcam.

Oh, and the House Wren babies have hatched. They started yesterday and finished today. Six tiny little babies, taken care of by very diligent parents.
