I thought I’d share some photos from the garden. As far as birds go, I have a terrible backlog of photographs to share. Here, I chose to focus on jays, finches, and a few other species, like the Brown Thrasher above, who I either haven’t shared or haven’t shared much of in awhile.
I hope you enjoy these, and have a great Sunday!

It didn’t flower last year, but this year, it grew to be about 3-4 ft tall and has these beautiful purple blooms. If anyone can identify, please comment.

I love those yellow eyes! I got lucky when I discovered him singing one morning. He was perched for a long time. I’m happy you enjoyed the photographs!
