03/12/2010 House Finch...and I can say this with a great sense of victory. I have been seeing these cute little guys for about a week now but didn't know what they were. Although this is not the best shot, it is clear enough for me to be able to identify him by comparisons to field guide images. :)

03/10/2010 I took this shot when I was waiting for the birds to return to the feeder in my back yard. I thought the layers of picket fencing were more interesting than the absence of birds. This is one of my plum trees breaching the fence line.
