Yesterday morning I woke up to a big ruckus. Apparently my house finches were being stalked by a little black cat. I don't think he got one. Those finches like to dive bomb at the cats when they come close. I think the babies are flying already.

I'm waiting for the Starlings to fledge before I take down their nest and repair the eaves of my little backhouse/future office. Some people don't like Starlings, but I couldn't bear to destroy the nest during nesting season. I can wait.

I think I heard one of the baby hawks calling when I came back from my run this afternoon.
Definitely a hawk-ish voice, but not as full-throated as I'm used to hearing, and coming from the direction of the nest.
