<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="color:#212121">Every year they perch in a forsythia right by one of our windows. I'm always stunned by the perfect coordination of the bright yellow flowers with the birds' yellow lores.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background:white"><span style="color:#212121">Of course it could be the forsythia's fault. Will have to look at my phenology to accurately place blame.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
