I've one last finish to share with you at month's end! Hoot!

Here are a couple of Halloween Birds.

We hear a juvenile Great Horned Owl several evenings each week, certainly he fits the bill as a Halloween Bird. While we generally do not see the bird, we do see other raptors like this this Cooper's Hawk.

The California Scrub Jays qualify as Halloween Birds given their wide array of squawks and noisy chatter.

Here's a small Masked Bandit!

In his Halloween costume - it's a Red-breasted Nuthatch.

Winter plumage can be a disguise - hard to recognize a female American Goldfinch. 

Here's a female and male.  I only have 3 or 4 birds - most have moved on.

Thank goodness the Pine Siskins have come to replace the Goldfinches.

Happy Halloween everyone!
