Paul Brewer photographed this Bushtit, seemingly posing just for him.

Bushtits are small songbirds. I love how they look for insects, oftentimes upside down! They often can be found with the flocks of Chestnut-backed Chickadees that we also have in our area.

Bushtits don't really have a song. Their calls are a high chipping sound. You can listen to their calls at this link to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology: https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Bushtit/sounds

Thanks to Paul for allowing me to share his photos with you here. To see much more of Paul's nature photography, here is the link to his website: http://www.capturingnatureswonders.com/
