Sleep In Sunday

Padma says a Sleep In Sunday morning is a 'purrfect' way to begin the day. 

I think this Steller's Jay looks like he got up before combing his hair. 

This one too - I didn't now birds could have "Bed Heads"!

This Oregon Junco on the other hand, looks quite well groomed and pulled together.

My little flock of Bushtits has become semi-regular.  The birds are very difficult to photograph as they are very small and only stay for 30 seconds or so before flitting off again.  The last few times I've been outside, and on the wrong side of the bird feeder to get a good shot.  

They sure are darling little marshmallow birds.

What's larger than a marshmallow, but still puffy and cute?

Mr. California Quail.

I'm getting a pretty good group of Chickadees.  I've counted 5 or 6 at a time at the front feeder.  They and the Juncos are my main customers at the feeders in the backyard.

Ah, Gold-crowned Sparrows.  Goodness, but I do have lots of sparrows.  It will be interesting to see what totals I get for the Great Backyard Bird Count in mid-February.
