Polioptila californica
One of the birds our group really wanted to see during our recent California trip was the California Gnatcatcher. We encountered this one at a county park near Los Angeles. While we worked on getting photos of this tiny bird as it moved through the brush we were confronted by what must have been the most curious little boy I have ever encountered. It certainly was a test of our self control to be patient with the little boy and his questions. It felt like I was Mr Wilson in an episode of Dennis the Menace. Looking back on it I can’t help but to smile, it really was comical and in the end everyone ended up with pleasing photos.
