From disappointment to delight: If our extended family Christmas gathering hadn’t been postponed by wintry weather, we wouldn’t have been home to see this pretty little late-to-migrate Orange-crowned Warbler at our backyard feeders the last two days.

Yellow-rumped Warbler in Windsor's National Urban Park
Yesterday, we spent the afternoon wandering around Half Moon Bay with Jeri. She showed us a couple of her favorite beaches and birdwatching spots, and we took photos together.
Between beaches, Bob and Jeri pointed out a bird hopping around in the grass and on a fence—and there were more. It was a flock of yellow-rumped warblers.
I've only ever seen them perching or doing in-flight acrobatics to catch bugs. They're also nimble on the ground.
