This coming Sat is my first "chaperoned" bird wallk. Recently joined MA Audubon and planning on "getting back to nature"
Audubon watercolor paintings: If this exhibit ever comes to your area, do see it. .............

If chaperones are necessary, maybe I should give birding a second look.
Well we have scrub jays (kinda like blue-jays I guess), acorn woodpeckers (not pileated, what's that?), redwing blackbirds, turkey vultures, mockingbirds, robins and cormorants plus towhees, black-capped chickadees, oregon junkos, crows, red tailed hawks, Canada geese (flying through), mallards, etc. So I don't think you're in California with those cardinals. Maybe you're on the east coast near water, some place like North Carolina. You can tell I have very limited bird knowledge.....Can you identify our location by these birds that we see and hear daily? Carolina wrens (VERY LOUD), cardinals, blue-jays, pileated woodpeckers, blue herons, great egrets, cattle egrets, redwing blackbirds, grackles, black vultures, turkey vultures, mockingbirds, robins, downy woodpeckers, cormorants, and many more.
