Here is the reason

I didn’t send out any pictures of the White-collared Seedeater:

This is the best picture I got! He’s there on the right.

Judy pointed out this morning that this is our one-week anniversary in our new place. One week? That’s all? It already feels like we’ve always been here.

We hosted a housewarming get-together this afternoon. Judy spent the morning putting together a ton of food; pinwheel wraps, sausage in sauce, 7 layer dip, hot artichoke dip and toasted focaccia bread, fruit dip, plus, of course, the usual salsa and guacamole. We got to show off the house. 75 degree calm sunny weather, so it was comfortable to be inside or out. All the food got eaten. Nice neighbors. Nice neighborhood. That was fun.

And spring has sprung. Birds have been here the whole time, but suddenly the mockingbirds are singing every morning. We saw a scissor-tailed flycatcher yesterday.
