had two jakes pecking at the glass front door this morning. wife thought it was JW's and made me answer the door. the jakes ran off and didn't leave a watchtower so they must have been of a different belief.
we had tanagers, and ceder waxwings come through too today. of course you don't have any hummingbirds VG! they are all freeloading on my porch!
