It's all about us, right?

We're going up to Gloucester today, to spend our first night of the season there (first crop of peas, lettucs, and beets are already in, and we turned the water on last Thursday). So of course when I saw this headline in today's Globe:

Anticipation build as cardinals gather

I assumed that our neighborhood birds were getting ready for our arrival.

You must have some nice bird feeders up there.

No feeders. But there are always cardinals about. I heard several of them commenting today, presumably not expressing support for Ratzinger.

We were also serenaded by the usual collection of chickadees, red-winged blackbirds, robins, and catbirds. along with an extended percussion solo from a (probably) downy woodpecker.
