He woke us with his gobbling and was conversant when we gobbled back. He was probably close to 4 feet long. Amazing how fast he walked. On Sunday we had a male Hooded Oriole on the hummingbird feeder. Today (Monday) there were still remains of the seeds I put out on Sunday for the finches and sparrows on the deck railing, and only half as many seeds were taken from the feeder as usual. Yesterday I did see a few house finches and gold crowned sparrows, but it appears that there are many fewer sparrows eating seeds, now that we have had a few hot days. No sign of white crowned sparrows. The oak tree is now festooned with worms. Lots of twittering excitement from chickadees and assorted other little birds there.
