Nicely done, and for some strange reason I use my left eye as well :confused:

Very nice, the first on has to be my favorite. But all three are very well captured.

Beautiful captures of a beautiful species. For what it's worth, I'm left eye dominant, too.

They were eating seed pods from last fall when I shot these. We had a hard freeze here in April that killed a lot of new growth, so I suspect that they are finding whatever they can.

I love the 1st pic best (you can see the red wax). I finally just spotted these myself. I figured they were gone for the winter, then I saw a whole flock up in a tree. I had just got my new 100-400 with 1.4 TC and took a few shots. They were stil too far to get anything like your's, but a least I can add them to my life list.
