On Wednesday I took a walk.

I've posted the plant life that caught my eye, but there were several birds too.

It began up close to the house with a Raven.

I had the opportunity to watch a couple of pairs of Violet-green Swallows.

As I continued my walk, I spied a California Scrub Jay.

Elsewhere I found a Song Sparrow.

Because it was singing up a storm, it was easy to locate. 

There were several Robins out and about.

And a couple of pairs of Bushtits flitted about.

I'd love to find one of their nests.

This was the 'best' bird - a Hutton's Vireo.

Don't forget - there are small wonders too.
