Well, today I saw a LOT of cardinals. Some some junkos, a small "herd" of birds chirping up a storm in a thicket, until I got too close, then all was quiet! I saw a hawk- probably a red tailed hawk but not certain, a male and female downy woodpecker, and something I had no idea what it was, a RUBY CROWNED KINGLET. That was cool! Just a pretty little greenish bird. I really had to look through the book awhile before I matched it, but it was an exact match.
Here are some pictures.

LOVE that first pic - what a cool walk!
I love birds too! Jeff has put about 5 feeders in our back yard and I find myself just staring outside and watching them. The little birds drink out of the dogs dish.
