New birds pics

Post by nanny_56 »

Thought the other threads might be getting a little long. If you have any pics please feel free to add yours along! :snow:

The Titmouse is my favorite little guy. I was so intrigued with them last winter after we moved here. I had no idea what they were, but found them sooo cute! They migrate in the spring, but a few do stay here all summer. Our Bluebirds do the same thing.

We used to get large flocks of Evening Grosbeaks here but have not seen a single one in several years...until the other day. Alas, they have not returned.

Nice Pic! I've never caught one with the camera, but it's not b/c I haven't tried! :( They are illusive here too!

I would love to see an Evening Grosbeak, they are so cool looking!

I had this tube feeder that I did not like at all. The birds really didn't use it much....but these guys loved it! I got rid of it last week. Of course they love the replacement just as well! :???:

Most of the birds that have been pictured are Christmas ornaments in Target. I have at least one of each and about 4 of the chickadees ( my favorite). My cat, Spider triggered on them quick! She thought she finally had her chance at those outdoor birds! :snow:
