Returning to an old birdsite tradition: the latest visitors to our bird bath. Here’s this morning’s Steller’s Jay. (These crested beauties are sometimes misidentified by nonbirdnerds as Blue Jays, but those have white stripes in their head and they don’t usually appear west of the Rockies.)#BirdBathCam #Birds #Birding #EastBayBirds #SFBABirds

It’s always a nice surprise to see the golden streaks of a Townsend’s Warbler. They visit about once a month. A bath is a great way to attract birds like this who primarily eat insects and don’t go for suet.

He’s back several times a week now! This time it’s feeding time. (I assumed he was picking bugs out of the jade flowers, but apparently they drink nectar too.)#BirdBath #TownsendsWarbler #BackyardBirds #Oakland #EastBayBirds #SFBABirds

Chickadee takes a dip. His buddy arrives, in comedic fashion (wait for it). #Chickadee #ChestnutBackedChickadee #Titmouse #OakTitmouse #EastBayBirds #BirdCam #Birds #SFBABirds #BirdBath #BackyardBirds

Another Chickadee buddy. Hummers are usually too small to trigger the camera, so the Chicka came in handy here. #Hummingbird #Chickadee #EastBayBirds #BirdBath #BirdCam #Birds #BackyardBirds

The Townsend’s Warbler stops by nearly every day now. And occasionally we see Yellow-rumped Warblers. But never both at the same time, until this capture. Towny didn’t stick around long, tho – Rumpy was getting too aggressive with the splashing.#TownsendsWarbler #YellowrumpedWarbler #Birds #BackyardBirds #BirdBath #BirdCam #EastBayBirds

The warblers keep coming! Visitors today are a Chickadee, Townsend’s Warbler, and then something entirely new. It took me a while to ID because there are so many drab olive birds with a white eyering, but then it revealed itself while bathing: an Orange-crowned Warbler! Our first at the bath, and a lifelister for me. (I guess it doesn’t count as a lifelister, though, if on cam, not in real time.)#EastBayBirds #BackyardBirds #BirdBath #BirdCam #SFBABirds #Warblers #OrangeCrownedWarbler

I’ve often seen hummingbirds get their bath as they hover in the spray of a lawn sprinkler. Today at the tub, a hummer benefitted from a towhee’s splashes.#Hummingbird #Towhee #BirdBath #BirdCam
