We had a new bird come into the feeders this weekend. As I glanced out the window, I thought it was another cardinal, but on closer look, it was a summer tanager. It is a bug eater so it was using the feeders as a perch and not for the seeds but it was a very nice surprise.
No, I didn't take this photo, by the time I found my camera it was gone. With the gold and house finches it was very colorful at the feeder station.
A bit of stitching progress this week:

Gorgeous pic of that Tanager. So exciting when new visitors show up. Great stitching progress too.
We want to put a bird feeder up out back to enjoy while we sit out on our new deck. What a lovely surprise to see that bird at your feeder!
99 Bottles looks like such a fun stitch. You are really coming along on it. The gate is pretty too!

Garden gate is pretty and good progress on 99 bottles - Amanda
Great stitching progress!
Nice going on the bottles, and the gate is so pretty.
What an amazing coloured bird. Ours are all shades of brown or grey apart from the robin redbreast.
Your bottles are growing nicely too.
What a beautiful bird! "99" looks great. I have all my floss and fabric and will start on July 4 with some others in our SoCal Cross Stitchers Yahoo group.
