Well well! Baby Josie is a week out of the nest and yesterday she came to the back yard and let us take a couple of photographs. Not too many though, you can't let those humans take advantage!

I said I'd tell you about the "other" magpie we have here who is not in Maggie's family, but events have moved so fast they've overtaken my story.

Yesterday was Butterfly Day. Once a year or so we get millions of butterflies fluttering by in unison, going where only they know. This time they were all going north. Sometimes it is so dense it is like a cloud of butterflies. It was a wonderful day for us and our birds, too.

Since Winged Hearts is just starting out from a blank slate right now, I thought it might be helpful to try to 'put you in the picture' with our various bird friendships as they stand at the present time.
