Great pics, Burn. Sounds like people are pretty fortunate to have Woodpeckers visit?

Nanny, I love the shots of the Grey Catbird on the letterbox. In the first pic, it looks like a metal sculpture. (Hey, it's not one of Rose's fake birds that she's sent you, is it)?

Dave, spectacular as always.

Grandmaggie, what a little darling.

WaterCan, the Mockingbird bubs are so sweet. Great shot.

Flowerjen, that's a decent sized hawk, if it's still a juvenile.

I took this shot a year or so back. They are Little Corellas and are without any shadow of a doubt the clowns of the bird world. They play on the swings at our local swamp. If they are in the nearby trees, you can actually encourage them to come and play by setting the swings in motion. This is a lousy shot with my old camera, but you get the idea. They form large flocks in the metropolitan area, and huge ones in agricultural zones, much to the chagrin of the farmers.
