This week I spotted three new bird species in my backyard: a Golden-Crowned Sparrow, which has become a regular, a Large-billed Savannah Sparrow and a brief visit by a Hermit Thrush. The Golden-Crowned Sparrow, while a frequent visitor, is very skitting and hard to get a photo of.

Golden-Crowned Sparrow (through glass, which gives weird bokeh):
