These are some of the birds currently visiting the backyard set-up. I've been waiting on the hummingbirds to make their appearance, but that hasn't happened yet.

Thanks, Ray! I'm not sure what's going on with the hummers. We already had them by this time last year. A friend in Texas said they had loads of them last summer, but have only a few this year.

Beautiful captures and the always greedy starling! I think they find feeders faster than any other bird! LOL The grackles are right up there with the starlings!

Thank you! I despise starlings in large numbers, but they do have some striking plumage in the right light. Grackles I don't mind. Usually. LOL!
