Friday. July It
We cooKed our hamburgers outdoors on the charcoal
grill. While we vera eating, a flock of bushtits came into a
nearby tree. We loe these' little birds that have been fre
quenting our jSIace more than usual lately. I guess there is
a charm in all tfhy things. These are very small, all gray
in color arft are about half tail. They come in flocks of 20
or so, flit en masfe into a tree, work over all its branches
for insects, eggs or larvae, and then fly on to the next,
looking almoslike leaves blown by a wind. This is one of
ine pleasures or. eatinj outdoors. You leel a companionship
with friends like theia.

bird watching. Soma tima I hope to go to Victoria and see
