Oh man. There's been a bird singing, almost hysterically, all day long, every day, very close to my house. It's a tiny house so it's inescapable. People hear it on work calls if a window is open lol. I'm not super versed in bird calls but know many common ones and have been having a tough time. Closest thing sometimes is a cardinal. I also thought I had more than one Close Loud Bird. But, as some of you have already guessed...the culprit is....a mockingbird! All day, every day. Going strong right now. This one is a legit opera singer. So many sounds and songs, it is wild. I'm impressed. And I'm slowly going insane.

I think (she) was looking for a spot to lay eggs, but was getting too much attention from a curious crowd of black vultures (I'm not dead yet!) and there was even a fox looking on! Back to the water...

Those are both good suggestions for seed mix sources. I grow flowering native perennials but have never tried a seed mix scatter/meadow approach over a large area. Has anyone? Let us know how it goes if you try it? -

I just started a bunch of flower seeds for my annuals pollinator patch. Tithonia (Mexican Sunflower) which I HIGHly rec for anyone who wants to see a lot of butterflies and hummingbirds ..also zinnias (same) which I'm kinda obsessed with and started 10 types. Some cosmos. Also genovese basil, persian basil, flat parsley, dill. I may pop in some cucumbers but they usually break my heart all too soon, aaaaand I'm skipping tomatoes/other again this year. -
Got you, thanks for the additional info. Good luck with all the logistics!

I'm not chasing the eclipse but I'm living vicariously through a friend who is wrapping the eclipse into a two week trip to Mexico. Looking pretty good for her. -
EJ, just curious are there plans to put stations in Harford, AA, Calvert, and Cecil? I am guessing so as the map says 52 (!) additional sites planned. Great project, thumbs up.
