Weekend at My Place

The first weekend in May had some old friends returning to the area for the spring/summer and some new visitors to my yard who were just passing through.
The weather was kind of dreary and the light was not the best. Most of these are certainly not the greatest shots, but good enough to Id the species that were here.
These were all taken on our property over the course of Saturday and Sunday. Thanks to my buddies Fisher and Chuck for their expert help in IDing some of the foreigners that showed up!
