Whatever these are, I had a hard time capturing them... so small, well hidden behind the leaves, bright sun behind... and they don't sit still....:evil:

Yea, you wouldn't believe how many times I hear this bird singing in my backyard tree just right outside the door and right in front of me, but I wasn't able to locate it until it flew away. Then my eyes started getting better...

Now I don't know where you are "lost in America"...but this is a LESSER Goldfinch. I guess that puts you out west or south-west.:lol:
