I would welcome more! I struggle to get good shots of these little beauties.

Surrounded by snow. I don't think the Hummingbirds will need their perch anytime soon!

Thanks Ian. I've only seen a few this year, but it's better than none. If it continues to stay cold, they might as well hang around!

Thanks Bob. They certainly do fit into the cute category!

Lovely shots. I'm too far south for redpolls, so I'll have to enjoy seeing the photos others post up.

At least you had more to choose from! The few that I have love to hang off the feeder.

Thank you! I'm thankful to have them, if only a few, and only for a short time!

What a beautiful little bird! I especially love the last one. The snow makes a nice background and really makes the bird stand out.

Thanks Carol. The last one is my favorite too. Even when they sit still, they are challenging to photograph well.
