Here's a pine siskin. This is the first year I've had any of them around.

Here's a scaled quail. They disappeared for the winter; but now they're starting to come around again.

Here's a female gambel's quail. I have them around in my yard all year.

Last one ... a male house finch. I just had to show everyone that not all of the birds here are drab gray/brown.

Deb, what a gorgeous pose on the Warbler you started this thread off with!

"Ok! Now if I could just squeeze into this evergreen just a 'wee' bit more, I might be able to stay a little warmer!"

My Goldfinches are changing color quite rapidly ...........

Nice shots today everyone!

Margaret...that Lorikeet is very beautiful!

Linth..your Goldfinch seems to have more yellow than ours..beautiful shot in the budding tree!

I've been watching the Eastern Bluebirds start their nest this morning...here is the female who has made several trips. The male is standing guard and chased away a Starling earlier.

Thanks for the pics of the birds from the SW, Jane. I just love them! So different from what I'm used to seeing.
Margaret...Beautiful!


Ooo! I saw a couple of brownheaded cowbirds lurking around this a.m. They better leave my Bluebirds alone! :((

They are too big for nestboxes.

awww, congrats on the nest building, Rose!

Deb, love your little butter butt, like how it's standing. And a remarkable shot of the Red-bellied WP. Thanks for the new thread.
Jane love the different kind of birds you have.
Those Rainbow Lorikeets wears there name well, beautiful birds.

Starling guarding his suet.

A few Redpolls , in the freezing rain.

The Cooper's Hawk is now a regular in the yard, this is a picture of him yesterday. He was here again today, but the pictures was very nice.

Female Pine Grosbeak sitting in the snow, yesterday.

These guys are so cute

Flowerjen, very cute. Would like to see one of those, they don't come way up here, might be afraid to freeze their little butt.

Tufted Titmouse! Those are really cool! Haven't been able to get a pic of one yet.
Everytime I go to get the camera he disappears, but he makes sure he gets some peanuts before he does!

I almost got a pic of a mockingbird it landed in the rhody right next to the window all of a sudden another mockingbird came flying down and they started fighting.

Titmice are cuties!
Jane, it's great to see all your NM birds, none of which I've ever seen in "real life". Love the Cactus Wren, especially.
Margaret: Lorikeets are just a WOW!
Linthicum: Nice to see the bright yellow on the Goldfinches. They always leave here just before that starts to happen.
Dellrose: I got a Bluebird box as a gift this week. Going to put it up tomorrow and hope. :)

Here's a Ruby Crowned Kinglet from a few days ago when it was pouring rain.
Deb

I enjoyed them all!

Oh thats cool Debin! I've never seen any of the Kinglets on my suet feeders.

I spotted them for the first time a few week ago. Never seen them here before either. I was pretty thrilled. :)

Cool Debin...and you got his little red crown too!!

Love the Ruby Crowned Kinglet. Never saw one before.

Here is a Tufted Titmouse acting like a Titmouse. Yesterday it was fairly warm here and I counted 27 of these little stinkers around the feeder and in the hedge--they surely must like it here.

GG

White throated sparrow looking none too happy.

cranky for sure!

Margaret, fabulous Lorikeets! But why do you want a Painted Bunting when you have those????? Here's an Indigo Bunting.
