OK I finally made one!
Good one, Zach! I keep forgetting to take a video ... I get all excited just seeing the bird -- thankfully, my wife will say "don't forget the video!" haha.
I had to scroll through the list to make sure this wasn't a duplicate. haha. Here's a white-crowned sparrow doing a little spring cleaning!
I've had about 20 to 30 of these guys hanging out in the yard ... they usually stay for a couple of weeks and then head off to their final summer vacation spot!

A rare bird and nice surprise on my morning walk through Beckwith Park. This bird was special enough for this time of year to make the Victoria RBA.
A nice find for spring migration. Meadowlark are uncommon in mid-spring migration as most overwintering meadowlark have left by now. This bird was singing by a farm reservoir above the bulk fields.
Wow, Kevin! Prolific! Nice work ... I'll try to get a Say's Phoebe video for you here from the Okanagan to add. I did have a couple of others to share, though.
I have to correct one of my entries -- The "Hairy Woodpecker" video above is actually a Downy Woodpecker. However, here's a video of a Hairy Woodpecker.
Continuing the Woodpecker theme ... A Lewis Woodpecker at Kettle Valley Recreation Area (BC).
Here's a Townsend's Solitaire -- not a great image, but you can hear his unique call ...
Finally, an Eastern Kingbird filmed at Vaseux Lake, BC.
