I was just out working in my yard and I found some feathers. Lately there seems to be a fresh one every day or so. Not from a kill, I think, but moulting, perhaps. Anyone know anyone who can use these? I have a number of Blue Jays around at the moment and they seem to be sharing. I haven't picked many up as my cats think they are for them and then I have messes to clean up. Usually in the early summer we find Northern Flicker and Woodpecker. I also get the occasional gull and crow. Perhaps someone can use them for crafts project or painting........whatever. I could save them if someone might be interested. Right now we have a few chickadees, blue Jays, a junco or two. yesterday we saw robins again flying west this time, and I think it was Thursday at just about sunset a large string of Geese were flying west along the shore. I tried to count but am not good at that. I would say at least a hundred. There are several groups of American gold finches, one of a dozen or so and one with five, swinging around and around over head chittering as they go. I heard a Northern Flicker yesterday afternoon and I heard what sounded like an eagle keening. I was seeing quite regularly, a very large dark brown bird flying over the golf course and in our yards but thought it was too big to be an immature Bald eagle and although I haven't seen it the past couple days, I catch a keening sound when the wind is quiet.
