Oasis still birdy

 I'm surprised at how many birds are still at the oasis. Today's highlights include two subspecies of Dark-eyed Juncos that I don't recall having here before this month, so that's cool.


Gray-headed Junco

Red-backed Junco

The basic difference between the two sub-species is the latter has a bi-colored bill.

 

Also, the Townsend's Solitaire is still around.



As are many good species, including this Least Flycatcher. (And the Least Grebe)



The Costa's was seen in town today by birders there.
