I saw my first Black-headed Grosbeak and first Hooded Oriole of the season at my feeders. I’ve got 3 different BLGR individuals now and 4 different HOORs. Should be some breeding going on!!

Today around 1:30pm we had 4 individuals, 2 adult males and 2 adult females in view at the same time in our garden. They were "taking turns" i.e. squabbling, working out among themselves, the order in which they would take seed from our feeders. Today was the first day that I saw so many at the same time.
