Lawrence's Goldfinch (Spinus lawrencei) is a small, migratory songbird in the Siskins and New World Goldfinches (Spinus) genus. It is "unique among goldfinches because of its mostly gray body. Male has black forehead and throat, yellow breast, and complex black and yellow pattern on wings. Female is duller. It is found in open grassy woodland. It is uncommon, but sometimes travels in large flocks, especially in fall and winter. Highly erratic, moves around a lot from year-to-year; difficult to track down with much reliability. Feeds on seeds. Sometimes visits feeders."

Bluebirds come around most evenings for a bath in the simple Pyrex dish birdbath. Today there were 3.
Western Bluebird (Sialia mexicana) Native, migratory songbird in the Thrushes (Turdidae) family that is 18cm (7 inches) long. Adult male tail, upper parts and throat are deep blue. Breast sides and flanks are chestnut colored, and belly and undertail coverts are gray. Female is duller, brownish gray above, breast and flanks tinged with chestnut, throat is pale gray. Nests in holes in trees and also in nest boxes. Bluebirds are year round residents in local (Monterey County) oak woodlands. Several nesting boxes can be seen in Toro County Park (Monterey County, CA). Diet is mostly insects and berries. Often forages by perching fairly low and flying down to ground to capture insects, sometimes hovering briefly before pouncing. May catch insects in mid-air, or may seek them among foliage. Perches or flutters among branches to take berries.
Breeding: "The western bluebird nests in cavities or in nest boxes, competing with tree swallows, house sparrows, and European starlings for natural nesting locations. Because of the high level of competition, house sparrows often attack western bluebirds for their nests. The attacks are made both in groups or alone. Attacks by starlings can be reduced if the nesting box opening is kept to 1.5 in (38 mm) diameter to avoid takeover. Nest boxes come into effect when the species is limited and dying out due to the following predators: cats, raccoons, possums, and select birds of prey such as the Cooper's hawk. Ants, bees, earwigs, and wasps can crawl into the nesting boxes and damage the newborns. Western bluebirds are among the birds that nest in cavities, or holes in trees, or nest boxes. Their beaks are too weak and small to dig out their own holes, so they rely on woodpeckers to make their nest sites for them."
