This Morning Outside

Under the wide eaves, right out the kitchen window, these four eastern phoebes are getting ready to fledge. For several days, I've spent a fair amount of time standing at the sink, watching to see them fly away any second. But this morning they're still here.

Inexpensive binoculars

Vortex CrossfireEveryone interested in watching wild birds deserves her or his very own binoculars.

A good binocular for getting started does not have to be expensive, but it should have good optical quality.

The Vortex Crossfire 8x42  is lightweight and waterproof. It focuses as close as 6 feet, and it works well even for a person who wears glasses. It costs only $139.99

Kozy Bird Spa

Our favorite birdbath all year around is the Kozy Bird Spa Unheated Bath with Pedestal.
