Hi Tweets,

Some more nice yard birds today. After bemoaning the absence of Townsend?s Warblers (though I?ve been happy to have both Audubon?s and Myrtle Yellow-rumpeds in the past few days), my FOY Townsend?s stopped by today.

Also in the yard, along with a huge horde of regular juncoes, my continuing Slate-colored Junco has been at my feeders all day. Finally got a pretty good photo of him/her here:

And I was pleased to see 2-3 Golden-crowned Sparrows too, along with towhees, bushtits, Song Sparrows, chickadees, and the rest of the regular gang. Still hoping to see a FOY Rufous one of these days!

Good birding,
Trileigh
