From a retired birder

Kinglet

Dry Creek Trail on the
Last day of glorious fall
A Wall of yellow thicket on the left
And Chic..chic..chic.
“Ohh, actual birding”I smile.
“Pissh pissh” I offer, and
Out pops a tiny round bird,
Now quiet…curious, quick,
Watching me, Turning to go.
Bushtit, likely. No, I see the eye ring
Blue-gray gnatcatcher! No,
I see the single wing bar!
Ruby-crowned Kinglet
Ruby-crowned Kinglet
Oh, the Joy.
