Already this morning, we have seen lots of birds in our yard!
A pair of Yellow-rumped Warblers paused for about a minute. I was lucky to catch a picture of them. Not good enough to post here, but good enough to show Jake when he gets home!
A pair of Western Bluebirds has been in and out all morning. The female is much more yellow than I expected. This is a new bird for us!
I caught a glimpse of a chipping sparrow. He bumped the window, and paused in the tree for a moment. I wouldn't have seen him if he hadn't stopped for a minute.
A White-crowned Sparrow stopped in for a minute. He'll be back.
A Black-headed Grosbeak tried out our feeders but didn't find them to his liking so he went to the neighbor's. I think he has worms. For the birds that is.
We also have many Broad-tailed Hummingbirds coming around. We can hear them before we see them. Sometimes they get close, and you duck out of instinct because you think you're going to get buzzed! This is also a new bird for us!
Along with all of these we have our usual ten American Goldfinches, Pine Siskins out the wazoo, Cassin's Finches, House Finches, Brewer's Blackbirds, Robins, Bullock's Orioles and a couple Red-winged Blackbirds! What a busy morning!

Awesome bird sightings and photos..I am adding your blog to my Google reader..
Love your template.
They are beautiful photos, aren't they? I wish I could claim them. We don't have a good camera yet, so all my images are googled. Sorry to disappoint! I wish my pictures could turn out that great!
