A quick 15-minute walk revealed some inklings, some hints of what is to come as Spring approaches. A male Audubon's yellow-rumped warbler was in all his finery near the Science bird feeder, and the Slate-colored Junco there continues. I am fascinated as I learn about these small birds and the diversity of plumage in them. I have a Cassiar's Junco in my yard (google that if you want to learn something really new) and the bird here are campus is a much more typical Slate-color.
A Red-breasted Nuthatch was also actively feeding over by Science as was a flock of Bushtits. Golden-crowned Kinglets were in a tree near Frost, and a Flicker was near Scarpelli. Courtship behavior among House Sparrows was ongoing, and House Finches were also in song.
