On Christmas Day, there was a Brown Creeper on the Douglas Fir tree in our front yard. I grabbed the Nikon camera and got a couple of poor shots. The bird is constantly on the move making it tough to get a clear shot.

The bird also blends in very well with the tree back, a good evolutionary survival trait. The next shot caught more detail with the sky as the background.

On boxing day I pointed the camera towards our back yard for the last time in 2019.
This is looking down from our deck into the blackberry brambles, where a couple of finches were munching on leaf buds.

Not a great shot of this Junco, which are quite common at this time of year at the feeders and in the yard.

We maintain a Hummingbird feeder all year round, but this is the first time I remember seeing this bird on it...
