New Year's birds

Yesterday's a.m. dorkwalk around the neighborhood yielded the first audible bird of the year, Cassin's Kingbird, and first visible bird of the year, Northern Mockingbird.

Hummingbirds, American Crow (such intelligent creatures!), House Sparrow and Bushtit rounded out the dorkwalk's bounty.

Then my birding was limited to looking at this duck for two days. Best wishes for a healthy year!
