My favorite Spring bird. When these beauties migrate through, our bird feeders look like the parking lot at Golden Corral. They take their food very seriously.

Thanks! guntoter wrote in post #16880383 Very nice. I had these at me feeder a few days ago and got several shots of male & female. Haven't seen them in a couple of days. They are beautiful. Thanks a lot, Joel. We are at a pretty high elevation here so they tend to stick around for about five weeks. Lucky us!

Ice is still on some lake's and spring is very slow in coming. Thank you very much, Jeff. I appreciate your encouragement! Many thanks, Al. After looking at their migration map, I’m surprised you don’t see them in MN. Oldjackssparrows wrote in post #16880876 Congrats Barry, a beauty of a shot, real nice feather detail.

Such encouraging critique is like fuel on a fire. Right now we have three pairs and they are entertaining to no end at the feeder. They eat voraciously—they remind me of teenagers at a pizza buffet.

Love the catch light too. You and Bret need to keep your eyes peeled and don't give up yet as I still have a couple of males hanging around......yes, thread to come  Very cool, Steve—I can’t wait to see your pictures. Thanks also for your generous and kind comments. PixelPusher wrote in post #16881714 Excellent shot! I like that look/pose of the bird. Many thanks, PixelPusher!
