For a few days, I have been trying to identify a small bird that has been hanging around in my lilac and rhododendron bushes.  It wasn't one of the Yellow-rumped which also showed up at the same time.  This morning as I watched it, it flew up to the windowsill, flared his orange crown and pecked at his reflection in the window!  What a sight.
