• Ruby-crowned Kinglet •
• Corthylio calendula •
• Sepulveda Basin •
Kinglets have been plentiful the last few months - GCKI in Michigan, RCKI in LA. I enjoy watching how methodically they work their way through cover in search of food.

• Dark-eyed Junco •
• Junco hyemalis •
• West Bloomfield Woods Nature Preserve •
Dark-eyed juncos have been out all over Oakland County, snacking to stave off the cold. Really neat how different the subspecies of junco can look.

The chickadees were active towards the tail end of the blizzard this morning, clumping up together in the low branches of the trees around the point. ~1 ft of snowfall!

Beautiful river gorge along the north branch of the Clinton River. Yesterday was warm, so the chickadees, nuthatches, and woodpeckers were very active.

Windchill of 1 yesterday! Braving the cold produced great birds - a beautiful Pileated Woodpecker, and my first Red-headed Woodpecker.
Bonus pics were taken in the exact same spot, 4 months apart.

• Townsend’s Warbler •
• Setophaga townsendi •
• Glendale Narrows •
Some new lifers along the very full LA river today! This Townsend’s warbler was gleaning for insects, and I was excited to spot 2-3 Bonaparte’s Gull (juvenile/nonbreeding) in the river.

• American Kestrel •
• Falco sparverius •
• Sepulveda Basin •
A soggy male kestrel at the basin today.
I’m thrilled about the return of the kestrels, meadowlarks, kingfishers, pelicans, and white-crowned sparrows!
Songbirds were very active and vocal in the rain.

I worked as a docent at our Museum of Nat History when I was in college and got to run a few animal ID workshops with K-5 students. Teaching them about kingfishers was so much fun - love this bird!
