We should get out more, but we also like waiting for these critters to drop by.

Garret Mountain Birds

Inspired by Tom Walsh's and Dan Murray's posts to the New Jersey Birding list, we decided to go to Garret Mountain in West Paterson, NJ, in hopes of seeing the Hooded Warbler. We're glad we did because this is an adorable little bird.

We also saw a Ruby-Crowned Kinglet, an Eastern Towhee, and a Phoebe

The first thing we saw was a chipmunk with its mouth full.

This chipmunk filled up his cheeks with seed that had fallen below the feeder.
