OK, these guys were tough for me. As soon as I owuld be about to get the lens focused they would flutter off. I managed to get a couple.

This is a CBC species specific thread so please post your shots of a CBC and share any info you might have on them...please specify your location...

I live in S.E. Alaska

Nice shots. I'll never see one of these live, but it's always nice to see the different varieties. :)

Thanks so much. I am hoping this species specific thread catches on. It would be nice for people to be able to share a shot in this case as more of an ID thing then a CC thing, but in my case CC is always welcome...lol

I have these at my feeder but have not yet tried to photograph them. You are right, they usually don't sit still long enough for you to aim and focus.
