Spring Birds are Arriving

 Cardinal

 House Finch

 Harris's Sparrows

 Collage of backyard birds


American Goldfinches

We noticed Goldfinches on the deck and we weren't prepared
at all.  Well, hubby went and bought some Nyjer Thistle
and filled the feeder.  It has been full of finches ever since.  
We haven't seen any Pine Siskins yet.  The House Finches and
Robins arrived about the same time.  I took all but one of these photos
through the window.  I captured the pic of the Mockingbird
while out on my walk.  He sits in the same bush, so I brought my
camera and captured the shot.  He's a big, juicy, fat one :-)

Happy Wednesday Everyone!!
