Let's see those '09 gardens

My 5 year-old and myself sat on the patio today and cataloged the birds we saw on the feeders and in the lagoon behind the house. I, of course, had 2 smokes and a few beer. Here's our list:

Blue Jay
Common Grackle
Tuffed Titmouse
Carolina Chickadee
Brown Thrasher
Mourning Dove
Ruby-throated Hummingbird
American Crow
Mississippi Kite
Red-bellied Woodpecker
Cardinal
Carolina Wren
Snowy Egret
House Finch
Great Blue Heron
Double-breasted Comorant
Mockingbird

She sat there with the bird catalog and was thoroughly amazed.

BTW, we've harvested all the peaches from the tree. The wife has baked 4 cobblers (a couple for the neighbors) and we have 9 gallon bags in the freezer. I must have eaten 3 dozen peaches in the past couple of weeks. Nature took her 30-40% share, too (squirrels, jays, worms, bugs).
