The 40 count R & R Inkspot Black linen proved to be very challenging.  The dark fabric, combined with the small count, was tough on my then 50+ year old eyes. And now my eyes are even older - probably could not stitch this. 

A couple of the Winter Regulars are still around.

A Bewick's Wren

I've also heard a Pacific Wren singing a couple of mornings, but have not seen it.

Bewick's are reasonably 'tame' in terms to feeder actvitiy.

I hope they nest nearby.

Not showing up at the suet feeders any long, but still here, a Ruby-crowned Kinglet.

This shy guy will move up into the Cascade Mountains of Oregon and Washington and most of Canada to breed.
