These pictures are all wonderful! I miss the orioles and the grosbeaks! Nice House Wren too. Cute Downy. Can't wait for your birds to come back down here! Glad they are not here though as this drought is killing birds, mostly I've been reading about hummingbirds dying of dehydration but I imagine it's affecting them all.

If you live in this area, the tower at Sheldon Lake is open. The top observation deck is 61 feet in the air. It's awesome! I haven't taken many pics lately 'cause not many fun birds around and my photo software isn't working. Here though are a pair that showed up for the grand opening of the tower -- a Cattle Egret and a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher.
