A few backyard photos

The yard has definitely been getting busier over the last few weeks. Most of our regulars are in and the food is going quickly! Here are some photos from the last week. Hope you enjoy!

A female Anna's Hummingbird making herself pretty.

She lets us get pretty close to her.

The Anna's and the Rufous both enjoy all the flowers coming up.


A juvenile White-Crowned Sparrow on our roof.


This juvie White-Crowned Sparrow seems to have been adopted by our resident Song Sparrows. The juvie follows them around and seems to be begging from them. The Song Sparrows don't seem to mind a bit.


Here is the White-Crowned Sparrow asking for some food from the Song.


A male and female American Goldfinch with a House Finch sitting between them.


A Red-Breasted Nuthatch enjoying some suet.


We haven't seen very many Black-Headed Grosbeaks this year, but this female Grosbeak visits almost everyday. Here she is grabbing a drink from the drip line.


Here she is grabbing some black-oil from underneath a feeder.


This photo was taken from our Birdcam. The Flicker has just recently started using the birdbath.
