DAILY PICS. VOL 96

Pelle says it's time to move on. I thought I would feature some of the small birds around here,

(Rufous Hummingbird).

A Dark-eyed Junco that thinks he's a Goldfinch.

A real Goldfinch (Lesser)

And a Tree Swallow.

Beautiful pics adel. Thanks for the new thread!

Male & Female Brownheaded Cowbird

Female Northern Flicker
is about on my Last nerve...

Along with her mate!...male Northern Flicker

Red -winged Black Bird on the way home today.

Lovely everyone.

Okay, Junco report… I haven't seen a single junco today. And I'm not sure I saw one yesterday either.

So if the Juncos are gone, that means my hummingbirds can get here.

Saw the chipping sparrow for the first time in months today.

And a male downy finally on the peanut silo.

And it was pretty funny because he could hear the camera and kept looking towards me.

Great start Adel and thanks for starting the new thread. That Hummer is awesome!!

Nanny...great pics and I wish you would send your Flicker here...I'd love to have him!! Love that RW Blackbird!!

Mrs. Ed...Those Chipping Sparrows are just the sweeted looking birds. The pics of the Downy are great and that last one is a hoot!!

We had lots of rain today and the birds are in a panic eating like there's no tomorrow!

Great Downy shots Mrs. Ed!

Nanny - those flicker shots are fun. I haven't seen one of those in years.

Great shots guys!

Thanks for starting the new thread adel!

NM Jane, Wonderful pics in the last thread!

he looks a little annoyed there Mrs. Ed!

The Flickers are beautiful birds, but some days they go on and on and on! A moment or two of silence is nice. They are in th little woods right across from our house. I am sure they will probably nest there too. SO will have little flickers before long. They have wrapped it up for the day now. So all is getting quiet for the evening!

Goldfinch

I wish I could have a few of your Fickers nanny! Nice pic.

Nice hummingbird up there. Flickers are cool.

A rare visitor to our polluted lake - a loon. I got a closer shot than this, but this one had more ironic interest.

White pelicans are one of my favorite summer residents here. Cormorants - not so much.

Nice pics Al! That first one has so much to say.

Beautiful pic of the Rufous. I did not get many pics today, but rushed outside when I heard a Pileated Woodpecker...and got a few shots.

Catbird in shrubbery.

Female and male Indigo Buntings.

Female Cardinal.

Beautiful Pileated GP, and the others aren't to shabby either!

Love the Hummer.

Great shots everyone. Mrs. Ed, bet you couldn't share the words that woodie was silently sending to you, if it could speak! LOL

Very nice pictures Nanny. I'll take some of your Flickers, noise and all.

Al, good shot of the Loon.

Gardenpom, those Indigo Buntings are beautiful.

Here is a silhouette of a Cardinal high up in a tree.

Today was very overcast, cold and windy but the wind blew in 3 new birds to our yard and we now also have at least 3 Hummingbirds. The birds have been eating like crazy with the cold weather and I am going broke feeding them.

Here is a first...Yellow Throated Warbler

another

one more of the YT Warbler

We also had an Indigo Bunting show up! What a thrill that was...but I had to take the pic from inside so it's not too good!

Such a cute little bird...he stayed all day long!

Just as I was about to call it a night an Orchard Oriole showed up! It was getting late but you can see how beautiful he is.

He flew onto the hanging plant I bought yesterday!

And also a tree!

The Goldfinch are still eating like pigs!

and changing colors of course!

This Downy was eating peanut butter on the log!

The Tufted Titmouse had the feeder all to itself!

Here is a pic of one of the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds that entertained me all day long!

Last one is another of the Hummer!
