Even on a gray day, there's quite an array of birds.

The Cooper's Hawk is becoming very tolerant of my presence. 

I'm celebrating the seasonal return of Golden-crowned Sparrows. 

California Quail are here all year.

Soon the Band-tailed Pigeons should head south.

Male Red-shafted Northern Flicker

White-breasted Nuthatch.  Unlike the Red-breasted Nuthatches, these guys never come to my backyard feeders, but I do see them marching up and down trees once in a while.
