As a birder, every year brings a thrill with the first-of-the-year (FOY) sighting of each species in my state (Washington, U.S.) and county (Pierce County). Yesterday on the first nice warm sunny day of the spring I saw my first Savannah Sparrow Passerculus sandwichensis, and heard my first singing Common Yellowthroat Geothlypis trichas.

Today, it was easy. They both posed for photos, and gave nice looks.

Good birding. Good Day!
