Our back yard is looking more wild now. Not everything we planted has filled in exactly as planned, but all of the plants and shrubs provide considerable concealment for the birds scavenging on the ground.
There were about a half dozen song sparrows scurrying around today and they seemed to be using the ground cover to hide from me. They were looking out, but they to stuck to their cozy little spots under the leaves. They weren’t singing, just quietly chattering with each other.

Perception of fluency remains despite the undefined nouns.
I am sitting outside working and a female Anna’s Hummingbird came along. She did not appear to notice me. She buzzed around my head and eventually went over to the Honeysuckle and delicately checked out every little flower petal. For a few moments there was some jousting with a bee (bombus perplexus) and then she sat for a minute on a tiny stem with some blossoms on the end.
She was a very good looking hummingbird with not a feather out of place. What a nice visit.
