Goldfinch and Chickadee The Chickade can't stay still and confuses the goldfinches at the feeder.

It's too hot for us to go far. We went to Dairy Queen to get the new (to NJ at least) Blizzard minis. Otherwise, we've just been sitting out, having a glass of wine and waiting for birds to come by. Oh, we also had the peach salsa from Terhune farms which may be better than the nectarine. Mike set up the ladder, put the tripod on top of it, and set up the birdcam to video the baby wrens first flights. Unfortunately, wrens are too small or the motion sensor isn't sensitive enough so the birdcam didn't capture it. There's a good video of Chris looking into the birdcam asking if it's on, but Mike has promised not to post it.
