 |
| New to the yard and a first for me Brown headed cowbirds. Male and female |
 |
| palm warbler seen almost everyday , in numbers. |
 |
| One Saturday I noticed flocks of hundreds of birds flying over. They looked like Robin's then one landed. Sure enough another first to the yard. |
 |
| Again flocks of dark birds landed on day after a rain. This is when I noticed the cowbirds, and Red-winged blackbirds among Grackles. |
 |
| One of several female Cardinals. |
 |
| Male Cardinal |
 |
| Mockingbird, likes to sit and harass my Cardinals and Buntings at the feeder. Shame on him. |
 |
| A pair of Red-shouldered hawks |
 |
| A daytime appearance of one of the cottontails. |
 |
| One of a pair of Yellow-Rumped Warblers |
 |
| Female Yellow-bellied Sapsucker, hardly see this pair, only once in awhile. |
 |
| Male Painted Bunting, one of two I have seen. |
 |
| Another first in the yard a Catbird, I hear him quit often now but only have seen him twice. |
 |
| Female Bunting, one of three observed. |
 |
| These are the tattle tails of the yard along with the Mourning doves, Cant sneak up on a bird with out them flying away and scaring all the other birds away. (Ground Dove) |
 |
| America Goldfinch. Two came and made a appearance for the other old birder. What a nice Birthday surprise for her. Another Florida bird list check off. |

What an amazing set of photos, I do wish I had a back yard like that, such a variety of birds, and not just any old common birds, there is some real class amongst that lot. Just look at that Cardinal, what a brilliant colour. you should post more often.
