What kind of bird is this?
It's a small bird with a mostly grey body, a brown patch on its back, black on top of its head and neck and a white face.
Hi Paul:
If the bird you are asking about is in the picture, than this looks like a chickadee. But in your description of this bird that has a lot of grey on it, this sounds more like a tufted titmouse or small warbler that is migrating through your area. This time of year birds usually begin their fall migration. Hope this helps answer your question somewhat.

Out in the sage brush is a bird that seems to be enjoying the coolness of the now misty rain and the sweet smell of the sage. It is happy, with a lovely song I have not heard before.
