Same as you!
I have 2 types ducks, wood peckers, sparrows, what I think it a crane or an egret and a couple others that I really like and have no idea what they are.
I have the EXACT same birds as you! What a coincidence!
My winter birds here are Dark-eyed Juncos, House Sparrows, House Finches, Eurasian Collared-Doves, White-crowned Sparrows. Canyon Towhees, Curve-billed Thrasher, Scaled Quail are the regular ones. Mountain Chickadees are here this winter, usually they stay in the mountains.
Vireos are cool, by the way. Red-eyed Vireos sing all day long in the summer, I think they sing more times in a day then any other birds. Here in Colorado, our common species of vireos are Warbling Vireo and Plumbeous Vireo. Red-eyed Vireos aren’t as common, though I usually see a few a year here. I see and hear a lot more of them back east.
