California Gardening: Backyard birds, 1 by sunnyg

I am sooo excited, I have orioles! I moved the flat hummer feeder into the backyard this weekend, and have been bummed that no hummers have been feeding from it. However, I happened to glance out the window a few minutes ago, and saw two different yellow birds on the hummer feeder! Of course I didn't have my camera, so I watched them feed and squabble over the feeder a bit. Next, they started bathing on the waterfall steps. They were hanging out for quite a bit, getting a really good bath, so I made a mad dash upstairs for the camera. I'm guessing I have a male and female stopping by, as they look quite different. There is this weird tinting material on the window which makes photos a bit challenging, but I got a few shots (not the best quality).
