Quietly Colored

Barn Owl progress

I just figured out that the branch on the left is placed incorrectly, so I'll be doing some frogging. 

The Barn Owl is quietly colored as are some of the other birds I've recently observed.

I am now seeing large numbers of this quietly colored bird - a Junco.

And while she sports multiple patterns, they are all in muted colors.

Female Red-shafted Northern Flicker

The Flickers had been AWOL for a couple of weeks.

It is good to have them return.
