fed the crows (pretty sure my Gang of Three is the mated pair that nested here this spring and one of their kids). just now heard some howling from the greenspace. I didn't get a good look, but I suspect it's Spot (Scruffy2), and by the sound of the howling I *strongly* suspect Spot is a coyote/dog cross--its howl sounds much more like a dog than a coyote, more bark-howl than yip-yowl.
also the hummingbirds are now doing aerial battles around the feeder. TINY TIE FIGHTERS
