Nice captures Norman, that first one looks like a young bird. I can see the rubber lip, as Mitch calls it. Well done!

That's what I was going to say, rubberlips in number 1. Dead giveaway. Looks like he wants something to eat too. :)

Thanks much Val, seems like they were the only birds to come out in the open... A few pine warblers were there but couldn't get close enough for a shot, quite typical of birds around here..
