I want to know the chickadees, bushtits, warblers and finches, barn swallows, wrens and the tiny ruby-crowned kinglet.

The landscape is alive with birdsong, including many species not actually in the game, such as the northern flicker and ruby-crowned kinglet.

One of those making an appearance could be the ruby-crowned kinglet, who winters in Mexico and the southern U.S. and is just passing through on its way to Canada or Alaska.

Yet each sighting of another species still seems to thrill him, whether that creeper, or a common Steller’s jay or a ruby-crowned kinglet.

Among the species noted were the American crow, bald eagle, barn owl, black vulture, great horned owl, red-shouldered hawk, ruby-crowned kinglet and savannah sparrow.
