Summertime Nature in New Jersey.

Birds of the day viewed in my backyard: Mourning Dove, Black Vulture, Turkey Vulture, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Downy Woodpecker, Blue Jay, American Crow, Black-capped Chickadee, European Starling, Gray Catbird, House Finch, American Goldfinch, Song Sparrow, Northern Cardinal. The European Starling appears to be higher on the pecking order than the Blue Jay. A flock of American Starlings descended on my field of Bee Balm and proceeded to pick most of the petals off the flowers. They then started on the field of Zinnia flowers.
