Bird watching in the rain

 Today was a rainy day, a stay in kind of a day. You know we have these down days to recoup for upcoming busy dry days, right? I was reading and looked outside at the bird feeder to see this "Spotted Towhee and shortly after a "Yellow headed Black bir" came for a few seeds. It is amazing how all these birds gather to eat from our feeders. Sparrows of several breeds, Flickers, Doves, & Quail and I saw a yellow belly sap sucker the other day, but couldn't get a snapshot of him fast enough. We have also the Red wing blackbirds and tri colored Black birds.. that hang out around the pond in the cat tails.. Fun to watch especially on a rainy day. I keep my eyes open for the baby quail hoping they show up soon.
