There was a failure in the commercial kitchen used by Stephane of All You Need is Loaf last night so I was forced to bake a few loaves myself in my less commercial, but seemingly more reliable oven:

| Banana bread (using the Christmas stocking bananas) and an English muffin loaf (already cut into--hungry!) |
Making bread means you're in the kitchen but with plenty of time to look out the back door, and today has been very birdy in the back yard indeed. Listed in no particular order:
Steller's jay
Scrub jay*
Dark-eyed juncos (so many!)
Gold-crowned sparrows
Black-capped chickadees
Chestnut-capped chickadee
Thumbprints (aka bushtits, and also oh so many!)
Varied thrush
American robin
Starlings
Crow
Townsend's warbler
Yellow-rumped warbler
Northern flickers
Red-breasted nuthatch
Spotted towhee
House finches
American goldfinch
And out the kitchen window so technically a side-yard bird:
Anna's hummingbirds
*California? Western? I'm hazy on their current designation
