They will let me take a few photos of them in the thistle every now and then in exchange for providing them with supplemental food at the feeder. Win-win situation all around.
Extraordinarily lucky

It rained and rained and rained. The rain was most welcome. The grass is still brown in spots, but it looks as though most everything else has really perked up after the good drenching. We may get more rain today. The air is soupy and warm, always a good combination for pop-up storms and showers.
