Bird watching in Dayton.

        The Blue Heron Air B&B, to which we returned after a two year absence, is in a park like setting, under tall trees, perhaps 50 yards from the Stillwater River. The river is obscured from view by a thick canopy of trees. This is an ideal habitat for a large variety of birds.  The proprietors of the Air B&B have several bird feeders next to our house, and they the keep the feeders filled.

       Coming to the feeders we've seen cardinals, house and yellow finch, red bellied and downy woodpeckers, nuthatches, chickadees, english sparrows, red-wing blackbirds, starlings, hummingbirds, scarlet tanagers, tufted tit-mouse and catbirds.  It's endlessly fascinating to watch their comings and goings.

      After the hot, humid, rainy weather a refreshing cool front has moved in.  Makes one thing of The Little House on the Prairie.
