The Orioles are still visiting my feeders...Not as often as they did but mornings seem to be the busiest time for them.
I finally got a picture of the Downy woodpecker drinking from the Oriole feeder...it isn't a very good picture but I caught him in the act.
Here is the Cardinal and a small sparrow
The small finches love to get the seeds from my flowers...
The Blue Jay visits often now..
I caught this female House finch taking a little snooze sitting on the Oriole feeder..

Fantastic photos! It's fun to see the various birds in your yard. You've got a good selection there. Just look at that woodpecker drinking, bet he counts himself lucky.

Your birds all look so exotic compared to ours - well apart from the sparrow!! I love the shots of the jay and the woodpecker. You have so many colourful birds visiting you.
