First part of the story
Kissy Face In The Owl Box
At 4am this morning Frick went in the box & Frack followed him. They trilled a little to each other and had a little kissy face session. Then Frick left and again Frack followed him. I believe Frick keeps trying to convince Frack to stay in this box and lay eggs but she is not having it.

2nd part of the story:
this goes with the photo above
What? I Do What I Want!
At 7:03 this morning I found Frack, defiantly back in the squirrel box in my backyard. The lady has a mind of her own. I didn't crop so tightly this time so you can see that the squirrels have chewed the top of this box in addition to the opening.

Under The Feeder
I looked out my window & saw her under the bird feeder. She was trying to keep warm and eat at the same time. The feeder above her was crowded with a bunch of male cowbirds. She had plenty of food all to herself on the ground that was spilling as the guys fought over the seeds above her.

How Do They Do This?
I've seen kestrels perched like this several times & it amazes me every time. High at the top tip of a bare twig. I guess they have a good view from there. Sure makes them easier to spot from a distance.

Frack Makes Her Own Choices
This is Frack. She decided to spend Saturday in my backyard owl box. The one I have not cleaned out in 3 years because it is impossible to access. I gave it to the squirrels who have raised a lot of babies in there and filled it with squirrel crap. You can see how badly chewed it is. No camera in there. My front yard owl house is nice & clean with fresh bedding, no squirrel crap and a camera inside. Screech owls will drive you nuts, totally unpredictable. She only stayed that one day. As you can see from her expression here, she is the Queen & nobody tells her what to do.

Photo 1:
Bug Lifer View 1
This is my first dance fly. I thought it was a robber fly but I was wrong. I could only get it identified to the sub-family level. It was in flowers I had in a pot in my front yard. A tiny little thing.
Photo 2:
Bug Lifer View 2
Dance flies get their name because the males swarm & dance in the air to attract females. They will catch a small insect, wrap it in silk and offer it as a nuptial gift. Then the females choose the male with the most delicious looking offering. Some males try to get away with offering an empty ball of silk. Those males probably don't have much success.

Bug Lifer View 3
Dance flies are predators and known for eating mosquitos. But they also drink nectar. So they are good pollinators as they find both prey and nectar on flowers.

The Mournful Cry
Male roadrunners have a song they use both to attract a mate & to let other males know he has claimed this territory. It sounds so sad. And a bit like a dove. He is doing it in this photo. It is how I know this is a male. You can hear the song here: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Greater_Roadrunner/sounds

I Smell Squirrel
The squirrel left right after I took a photo of it in the nest. I was looking at wildflowers under the nest when I heard a sound & looked up. 6 minutes after the squirrel had left, a hawk was back in the nest. Wise decision on the squirrel's part to leave.

I don't know what that squirrel is thinking. That is an active red-shouldered hawk nest and squirrel is on their menu. No eggs or babies yet, they are still working together to build up the nest. Both hawks were around but not right at the nest when I saw this. No encounter while I was there.
