Yesterday and the day before, I saw my firs Golden crowned Kinglet! The little bird had a beautiful little yellow spot on top of the head. He was a tiny 2 1/2 inch tall and 3 inches long! It was so cute!
One time our parents left for a show and we stayed here with our grandmother. When I was just getting up that morning, I heard a loud bang on the window. I ran down stairs to see what it was. There was a little male downy woodpecker laying there stunned. I picked it up in a towel and brought it to our room. When I got there my brother was sitting there reading. I said 'I have a surprise for you' I said holding the stressed woodpecker behind my back. He was amazed at the little thing. I was sure it was going to die, but when i was going to go out side with it.... It squirmed out of my hand and flew to some furniture and started pecking on it. then it flew back to us and started standing and pecking my brother! As I was about to open the window, it flew and hit the window a second time. then it noticed the open window and flew away.
