1)My shutter click scared this Red Winged Blackbird!

2) Just before the Boo!

4)I assume this is a young Mourning Dove. No other Dove was allowed on this perch...very dominate for a youngster.

5)Shot this one through my window on a rainy day. The male version of the Purple Finch.

6)We have American Robins nesting in the front of a tractor. Not an ideal location!

Wonderful set Sandy. That is a beautiful bunch you have there. My favorite is the purple finch but the whole set is really nice.

Thanks Ted, Jeremy, Barry and Carol. The Finch is my favorite too. He was only a few feet from my window.

It's been challenging to engage in my favorite hobby lately...I'm either haying, or it's raining.
