55 species for July here, fewer than last year's 60. Have 56 for August so far and it's just the beginning. Hope it's a good one. Nice that your box fledged Great-crested FCs. Have never seen one here.
Yep, August is off to a good start with this morning's Yellow-billed Cuckoo! Those were Brown-crested not Great-crested--would love to have that on my yard list!
I love your description of the holiness of rain.

Darn, I thought I'd gotten over calling Brown-crested, Great-crested! 20 years in Maryland must have burned Great-crested in my mind.
They do have a great crest...but it's brown...
Thanks Karen! One of those things you don't think about much until it's gone...
