'Tis the season ...

I have a handful of posts to write and they'll be coming shortly. But in the meantime, I had a very welcome visitor today. I saw him for the first time a few days ago and it appears he's made this place home for a while. It's taken 3.5 years to see one of these gorgeous birds up here. I wish the photo was clearer but it was taken through the window and at high zoom. I cleared it up a little using software.



A few hours later, the Mrs. made an appearance:



I am so happy they're here.

There has been lots of bird activity lately as I keep the bird feeders stocked.
