I just recorded my first ever Rose-breasted Grosbeak so I'm going to have to sit down for a while.

I've had quite the summer so far. The less common birds I've had near my house include:
Indigo Bunting
Eastern Warbling Vireo
Tennessee Warbler
Red-eyed Vireo
Chimney Swift
Great Crested Flycatcher
Chestnut-sided Warbler
and also a Rose-breasted Grosbeak.

If you don't already have it, I can't recommend the Merlin Bird ID app highly enough. It's amazing.

We have one of these bad boys nesting in the woods next to the house. Whenever we put out some black sunflower seeds, the pileated woodpecker let's everyone else know it's his/her time to feed.

I'm not exaggerating when I say it's almost 2-feet tall and it's sky shadow sends every squirrel in the yard running for cover convinced it's an eagle or hawk.

Hey, I get excited when I see a cardinal, oriole or blue jay at my bird feeder. It’s where I’m at in my life and what’s considered fun.

The greatest birding documentary...ever. You will laugh and want to become a birder.

I see those eyes looking at me and I'm going in the house too! Menacing looking dude.

Seems like a strange list of officials, especially being rated that highly now.

So he’s from MN, transfers to AZ, and officials in NY, MS, and WA. Maybe hes just trying to hit every corner of the country?

Seriously tho- small town school in the hick Deep South, big school in a large, ultra-progressive city, and medium sized city in the middle of nowhere, all from different conferences. Not sure you could come up with 3 more divergent schools is you tried.
 

Ole Miss has Chris Beard and $$$ Washington has been spending big the couple years, just not wisely, Syracuse I'll admit I know nothing about their NIL but have to imagine it's decent for hoops. Of the four Purdue is probably the best combo of money and basketball, they certainly the best coach of the four in terms success and putting dudes in the league. The question is will we be his fifth and will he make it to his fifth visit?
 

Interesting prospect, looked average at Hopkins, seems he's grown. Does he have a 3pt shot? Is he of Somali descent? MN looks to be a long shot at this point and if he's over rated, very well could be, seems like he's chasing that top $ offer.

LOL.
Clear and huge miss by Medved.

Rationalize away, though.

Michigan and Purdue are on Davis pretty hard. He’s not had the greatest summer. On his AAU team, Davian Thompson (Arkansas) and Quinton Kitt (Illinois) have been better.

Davis is Mr. Basketball in Illinois. A bit short (6-foot is a stretch) but can really control a game. To his credit, he stayed loyal to his high school and didn’t leave for prep schools like so many of the other top players.
