You certainly have a great variety of feathered visitors in your garden Sherry. Thanks for posting their photographs for us to see.

Nice birds. I had to laugh at the hawk. He seems to be wondering about where his treats are.

I always love to see your feathered friends. They look so happy in your yard. The small ones look like they are posing for you. My fave in the doves... I have a soft spot for doves.

I am hoping that when the redpolls return this winter (from Canada) they will bring back most of my little American goldfinch. I was wondering where they all went last winter and I did some reading and read that they sometimes travel with the redpolls...Only about 5 or 6 stayed.
Thank you for the replys...I have been so busy with things around the house and hopefully I will be back here more. It was nice to find time to get my camera in use again.
