Friday Evening's Birdwatching Adventures

Friday after work we put our binoculars to use in the back yard. We started a little after 5 and watched until about sunset. (5:47 PM) At first there were a lot of birds flying overhead, but the numbers quickly dwindled as sunset approached. The birds that we were able to identify were:

1. Northern Cardinal (in pomegranate tree)
2. White Winged Dove (on tree in back yard of the house next door)
   
3. Rock Dove (roosting on purple martin birdhouse in yard next door)

It was a clear sky with little wind and temperature about 65.
