Very skittish birds. Difficult to sneak out the back door
to photograph them without the birds flying away. I have
resorted to shooting through the double-paned windows that
overlook the small backyard creek. Outside I would have used
400 ISO and with this shot I went for 1600 ISO.

Normally found in more montane and wooded areas and rarely
in downtown residential like this one in Hollister, CA.
