Thank you so much for sharing and also for the identification of each bird. I’ve got several books on birds, but your show helps me see them in action. I really enjoy your channel and look forward to seeing more.
Thank you! The ID labels are something I committed to doing from the beginning. I’m always glad to hear that they’re helpful. I try to wait a few seconds after the bird appears to put up the label so people can use the Sunday Shows to practice their ID skills 🙂
I revisited this just now, my birthday weekend. I get nostalgic for summer In early fall! But now I'm remembering the "heat dome" we were under. I couldnt go outside except just before sunset, here in NW Florida.
I bet summer in Florida can be miserable. I graduated from Florida State and stayed for one summer session. I took all early morning classes to avoid the heat. Also made lots of road trips to the beach at St. George Island. It was a fun summer.
I absolutely love your videos. And I truly appreciate that you label each of the visiting birds. 😊 You’ve inspired me to create my own setup like yours. I have a wonderful array of birds that frequent our yard. A bathing stream would be perfect for them!
The vireo is SO FAST! Amazing! I usually can recognize the tufted titmouses most of the time, but I rarely am correct on the other birds. When the female cardinal appeared. i was like, that looks like a female cardinal. We have a lot of cardinals in our yard and the beak color looked a bit familiar. I live in Alabama so I know the weather is very hot and it is especially nice to see the birds get to cool down and have a drink! The cardinal is large and might enjoy a deeper pond but he is probably so hot that he is just delighted to find your pond.
What's better than a funny titmouse taking a bath?...Two of them!! 😄!! I still don't quite understand exactly what the vireos are doing. Are they just dunking themselves or do they also grab a quick gulp of water? It just amazes me how much more you see of each birds personality at the water than at the feeders. Have a great week!! 🥰🌿♥️
When they get it right, the vireos are taking a very quick bath. They’ll skim the surface, dunking their head and doing a little twist to get wet. This week’s Yellow-throated Vireo seemed to be barely hitting the water or touching down briefly on the edge. Maybe a young bird learning how to do the splash and go 🙂 Love the titmice! Thanks for watching and have a great week!
Somehow I missed this previously! The last few moments were especially 😮divine. Is that a vireo calling in the background while the bluebirds had the pond?
I pretty sure that was a Vireo but I’m not sure which one. I’m still learning bird calls. This summer, the Merlin app often told me that what I thought was a Red-eyed Vireo was a Blue-headed Vireo. I hope, with practice, I’ll eventually be able to tell the difference.
So lovely to watch these beautiful birds. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!

I love how the birds look a little bit like Rod Stewart after a bath 😁
So true! 😂

Thank you and I’m glad you find the bird IDs useful 🙂 Good luck with your project, I’m sure your birds will love it!
That's what a bird's life is like. Always having to watch out for something.
Definitely. Always aware of what’s going on around them.
aww nuthatches are such cool birds. their little honks and upside down walk...

I love those vireos. They’re fun to watch. You’ll learn to recognize more of the birds. It just takes time. Thanks for watching!
The Hooded warbler at the end was worth the wait!
I’m so exciting to have them here for the summer!

I still want to commission you to do this at my house. A little piece of heaven.
