...they'll just have to do, 'til we get some more new birds.

Burma Shave?

Terrific set, Kenn. You and Temple sure know how to photographs these little beauties. The close-ups of the Robin and the BBs are incredible. Great shooting.

Gorgeous shots, Kenn! I like the titmouse in particular as I've never seen one around here.

Thanks everybody,

We sure do love our yardbirds here... and we appreciate all your encouraging comments.

Ian - We have a lot of these sweet Tufted Titmice and they are a fun-riot for us to watch all year-round. What we almost never get though is Grosbeaks... and on that rare occasion it's the Rose-breasted (usually a female). We'd love to have some Evening Grosbeaks like the one's you just posted drop in on us here.

Happy birding everyone,

Kenn

Wonderful set of shots Kenn.....as always, I'm partial to the beautiful bluebirds, but they're all beautiful shots.

Thankyou also Sharon, Bret, squirrelsnest, Al, and Mike.

Al - I suppose we might both be dating ourselves, but I'm sure glad someone got the Burma Shave reference. Fond memories of traveling cross-country in my youth.

I must tell you tho... We love getting old! The only thing better than having a lot of lovely birds in the backyard, is finally having the time to photograph them everyday.

Thanks again to all for your replies,

Kenn
