Did you know that many smaller birds migrate at night? The winds are often lighter and there are fewer predators to contend with. They then eat and rest during the day which is why spring and fall migration are great times to see tanagers and warblers.
Right now I have American Goldfinches.
A female Western Tanager.
The backside of a warbler - probably a Wilson's Warbler.
The first sighting in a couple of months of a Pine Siskin.
This may portend their presence this winter.
A young White-crowned Sparrow.
Papa California Quail.
A young Steller's Jay.
Two of 'em!

Pretty birds! I didn't know that about birds and migrating. Enjoy your day!
Fly By Night is such a cute, quirky stitch. And no, I did not know that about many smaller birds.
Loving the small birds!
Great set of photos and I love the quail. Have a fab weekend Diane
Such a cute stitch. I had never heard of that designer but crazy folk seems to fit me these days. I do love all of your bird photos especially the blue birds...such a lovely color. RJ
Love the backside of the warbler with the pretty flowers in the background!
