I think that you have so many readers is because you can feel the warmth, excitement and love that you have for life and certainly you and George are such a lovely couple to follow. I read every post of your, but may not always comment. As far as the grosbeaks, I had two females eating thistle for a couple of days and then they must have moved on.
