Counting the Industrious

Today is a slow day; Bronwyn is having a few more seizures than normal, and so we are spending a lot of time on the couch. Luckily we have a large picture window nearby, and we can look out and see the birds flitting, flying, and feeding! So far, I've seen these birds:

Black-capped Chickadee

Red Breasted Nuthatch

Red Shafted Flicker

Juncos

American Goldfinch

Ruby Crowned Kinglet

Glaucous Winged Gull (seagull)

Crow

Scrub Jay

Stellar's Blue Jay

Bushtit

Red Breasted Robin

House Sparrow

Purple finch

Starling

Rufous Sided Towhee

Our soundtrack this morning is: Rory Block's "I'm Every Woman," Eric Bibb's "Get on Board," and now Cathy Fink's "Banjo Talkin'" All of these courtesy of my fabulous Step-Father-In-Law, Rik, who understands my need for tunes.

Have a blessed day; we will do the same. And Merry Christmas Eve.
