And Here is Wee Chicken

This is the companion piece to Wee Rooster. I stitched both clear back in 2010.

I continue to watch the bird active in the morning when it is cool and the air is clear.

I am seeing Mourning Doves - up to five at a time.

Most of my American Goldfinches resemble this one - dull of color.
This is an adult female - there are a few brighter yellow males, but they are beginning to look a bit mottled as the lose their courting colors.

Here are a couple of Begging Babies!

And two more - they make quite a ruckus for little birds.

The last time I posted a photo of this bird was back in September of 2017!
It's a Hermit Thrush, a member of the same family as the American Robin.

They have a lovely song, but I've never heard one sing.

It was nice to have this rather elusive bird spot by.
