Dark-eyed juncos
This famous puddle has seen lots of activity over the last few weeks because it is in a near constant state of fullness thanks to the rains we've had. Jeewa captured some dark-eyed juncos there recently. The juncos, along with white-throated and white-crowned sparrows are now much in evidence. Keep an eye out for fox sparrows too. Still song and chipping sparrows around as well.

White-crowned sparrow
Another one taking advantage of the puddles to have a bathe!

Sunshower
This absolute drenching rain came down while the sun still shone brightly. It looked like a curtain of water and I took a number of shots before I got one I liked. When I turned around, there was a spectacular rainbow!

Rainbow over the FWG
I was enjoying the lovely sunshine in late afternoon when all of a sudden, the skies opened and the rain pelted down. The sun continued shining! It was a fabulous sunshower that went on for some time. When I turned around from photographing curtains of rain, there was this magnificent rainbow arcing over the garden. A sign of another 20 years of good things at the garden?
