I am a Teenage Birdwatcher

This is the first post of my first blog!
 
I'm a teenage birdwatcher in sunny Southern California.  I'll be posting lists of the birds I see in my backyard many days, and neat birds I see in other places too.  I'll also be posting photos I take with my new camera!  Forgive my amateur photography skills!

Here's my first photo of one of my favorite birds, the yellow-rumped warbler.  It winters here in large numbers, and behaves a lot like a flycatcher, flying from its perch to catch insects on the wing.  If you see one, there's likely twenty-five more in the bushes!
