These little guys are the bravest and first to come to a new feeder. It's interesting that they don't crack the sunflower seeds open, but stand on one pod with both feet and chip away from the side to eat the seed that way.
Had a very short DOF on these shots...comments welcome.

I can NEVER catch these little whirlwinds in one spot long enough to get a decent shot. Nice!

They seem to be my easiet--it's the gold finches and rose breasted grosbeaks I can't get!

Thanks, Sindri-high praise from you. I guess the 400 is responsible for the bokeh. :)

Great detail on these, Karen. Yeah, it's amusing to watch them work so hard just to crack one seed.

They sure look skinny after the winter. Maybe it's from working so hard opening a sunflower seed. :)

Yet more great shots - I think I like these the best of the recent bunch.
