Spring Stitch and Bird Walk

 
Design - Spring (Zipper kit)
Designer - Bent Creek
Fabric - unknown - large count like Tula
Fibers - six strands
Started - 18 March 2001
Completed - 1 April 2001

I went on a walk to look at wildflowers...

...the walk turned out to be very birdy.
Here's a Goldfinch.

Purple Finch

Turkeys

Evening Grosbeaks

But this was my Best Bird. 

An Orange-crowned Warbler.

Usually they flit about making taking photos difficult.

As you can see this one posed for me.

I got several nice shots.

I also found a Yellow-rumped Warbler.

The light was not the best...

...but you can see its distinctive yellow throat...

...and yellow on the wings.

A Black-capped Chickadee sang for me.

And up near the house I found a second Orange-crowned Warbler.  

At the house I took a seat only to be entertained by this Chestnut-back Chickadee.
