Newest Pattern in the Little Stitcher's Bird Series

I purchased the newest bird in The Little Stitcher's series.  It's a European Goldfinch - very different looking than our smaller mostly yellow American Goldfinch.  Am looking forward to beginning this.

And speaking of small yellow birds...

For several mornings now a Orange-crowned Warbler has been flitting about.

It is much more quietly colored than many warblers...

...and it does a great job of hiding behind leaves!

Here it is!

And a bit closer still.

A nice side profile.

I also had a larger yellow bird come by.

A female Bullock's Oriole.  I wish I'd been able to get

better photos when it was closer.

I've had a flycatcher or two as well.  

My birding experts seem to feel that this is a Dusky Flycatcher.

If so, it is a new Yard Bird and Life Bird for me.
