Rare Bird Sighting at Lake Frankston

What a glorious weekend at the lake. Bird watching has been a full-time job. A noisy pair of scissor-tailed flycatchers are hanging around in the late evenings and sleeping in the sweetgums. Three of the five bluebird eggs hatched this week. Bill and Hillary are busy flying in and out with food. Friday, a rose-breasted grosbeak showed up. He's alone and probably migrating north, but he has been here for three days hanging out with the female red-winged blackbirds. Here's a quick video I managed to capture by taping my iPhone to the raccoon baffle!
Come on down!!
