[EBB Sightings] Not a bad day at the feeder

Couldn't get out to any place decent today, but I had a good day for my
backyard in central Fremont.  I saw a total of 13 species within a couple of
hours of refilling everything.

 

Junco - Several started showing up in the last week or two.

Golden-Crowned Sparrow - One

White-Crowned Sparrow

Fox Sparrow - One came by today, FOB (First of Backyard)   :)

House Finch

Red-Breasted Nuthatch - One, which is now a regular visitor.  Beautiful
bird!

Chestnut-Backed Chickadee

Lesser Goldfinch

American Goldfinch

Mourning Dove

Towhee

Scrub Jay - Several love the peanuts in a shell

Bewick's Wren - This was the best of the day.  I had two of these today that
stuck around for a while.  In the past I had seen only one infrequently.

 

The other birds I've seen are Nutall's Woodpecker and a Cooper's Hawk.

 

Good birding!!
