Elphaba, great photos of the red-winged and warbler in the last thread.

Nanny, thanks for starting the new thread. Love that red-bellied!! That sparrow sure is colorful with the goldfinch. What a cute photo of the chickadee and the titmouse.

LindaTX8, great shot of the jay!

Burn, love that photo of all the grosbeaks! Cute redpolls too.

Hack great photos of your birds. The House Sparrows are sure fighting with my Tree Swallows over the birdhouses every day. Love that Pine Warbler-colorful. Glad you're making more logs, sounds like they're perfect for attracting the birds.

Margaret, thanks for the article.

Here's something I haven't seen for a long time. I was out photographing two young deer just outside the fence when a Scrub Jay flew down to a branch next to one of the deer. The jay then jumped on the deer's back and later moved up to the head where it picked off fleas or ticks. After the bird finished, it flew to the second deer's head and did the same thing. 200 photos later, I'm still kicking myself that I'd taken the teleconverter off the camera a few days ago!
