We're off to a new volume of daily pictures already. Seem like Vol 70 filled up over night. If you want to skip backwards this hyper-link will take you back there.

I drove a 120 miles this morning looking for birds to photograph, and never took the lens cap off. Back home I took a number of pictures out the kitchen window. This Redpoll posed for several seconds.
A little wider angled shot of the same bird.
This is a female Redpoll. She doesn't have pink on the breast.
A Black-capped Chickadee.
Another Black-capped Chickadee.
This Chickadee has a curved tail.
A view of the other end. lol.

Tail.. curved... that's interesting Resin!
Lovely bird that Chickadee.
Here are my Sun bird and a Dove.
The curved tail brings to mind a question...do birds roost in the same place every night, or the same general area?
Gary...lovely birds for a lovely start for a new thread, thanks for starting it!
do birds roost in the same place every night
thanks Resin!
Resin, you are just a wealth of knowledge! Thanks for telling about the chickadee's tail.

My first Robin of the Season. Not in my yard, but a friend's suburban Chicago yard. A WELCOME spring sight!
White-breasted Nuthatch.
Posting this… just because!!
Nice shot Mrs Ed!
Went walking around the neighborhhood today and found some Eastern Bluebirds
and 1 lonely Robin!
Tufted titmouse checking out his peanut! GM
Considering how dark & cloudy it was at the time I was suprised they turned out as well as they did. Looks like the clouds are finally starting to break up now.
Another..Eastern Bluebird. This one shows the colors on the back pretty good.
Nice pics nanny and GM!
This Western Scrub Jay reminds me of Andy Rooney.........Or maybe John L. Lewis.
Aside from looking for & finding bluebirds today, I was also chasing this hawk around all day. Trying & trying to get a good photo, but there was to be NO cooperation on it's part! These very sad photos are the best I got. If anyone can ID it for me from these you need a prize!!

Turkey Vulture :-)

Only kidding, I have no idea.
#3
It didn't seem large enough for a Turkey Vulture and it was being chased by crows and I have never seen the crow chase the vultures.
OH, OKay Pelle!! :-)
