twenty-four: birds of northern california


We have only just recently begun to appreciate the birds around our house. My brother made us an awesome bird feeder, and we also have a finch sock. Unfortunately, we think the bird feeders double as cat feeders. Sad, but probably true.

Birds we've seen:

- tons of quails. (so stinking cute! probably my favorite)
- some blue jays (loud and obnoxious, but I still like them)
- golden finches (beautiful and so interesting how they like to cling to the sock while they eat)
- black-headed grosbeak (just okay)
- chickadees (adorable)
- some others we don't recognize. Maybe this book will help us a bit.

Oh. yeah! Some of our chickens like to fly up to the feeder, too. We think it's funny!
