I thought it was a chipping sparrow but found a male,female and baby Pine Warbler.
They were hard to photograph through the branches.

An evening with the roadrunners. Previously, I only had pics from further away. This was a real opportunity, from as close as 10 feet.

I thought I would fill the blank in this category.

A roadrunner on the run!
In the countryside you couldn't get within 40m of a roadrunner, but in town next to the arroyas they seemed more used to the presence of people. They were a trio, so they were further distracted by other interests.

This spring there were a few pairs of Bitterns calling in the swamps. We saw them more than ever, but few decent photo ops. This one was on a mound pumping himself up and calling.

This spring the Winter Wren reappeared at the same locale as last year. I managed some pics in the gloom. It was a little far for flash.
I like the Fench name "Forest Wren", very fitting.

While waiting for the Towhee, the Goldfinch showed up. Snapped a few pics, as they are always a little difficult.
