House Finch
There was one little male House Finch among the chickadees, nuthatches and goldfinches today at Croydon Creek. Another visitor, a beautiful fox, ran toward me on the path. I knew he didn't see me, and in the next three seconds I debated whether to try and get a blip, or move and scare him away. The last time I had a similar encounter with a wild creature, it was a raccoon on my patio and I stuck it out. In retrospect I felt that might have been a foolish risk, since it got within a couple of feet of me, but I did get my blip. This time I took the more cautious route since the fox was moving toward me so quickly. I moved my arms and he was gone in a flash. Oh well, maybe next time.
