Gray Catbird
Hooded Warbler - heard
House Finch - feeder (m)

Northern Cardinal - feeder (f, m) He flew up to the feeder she was on and she gave him the seed that was in her beak! I've seen a male feed a female several times but I don't remember seeing a female feed a male before.

Raccoon - on the porch sometime after midnight. There were two on the porch this evening but by the time I got there one had scampered and I only saw one.
