"Such a beautiful morning, so quiet and peaceful. I'll just enjoy the view." says Mrs. Finch.

Huh! What's going on over there at the feeder?

It's those new guys, the Grosbeaks. They think they own the place.

Won't even let one of their own kind land here.

I know Flow, I'm just watching them makes fools of themselves.

My mother told me to stay away from the feeder at times like this.

If I flutter my wings real fast I might even be able to fly away.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Thanks Dick, Thusie, Harry and Dallas. I had a good morning shooting all the little birds at the feeder, and the little towhee in the peach tree nearby.

    Thanks Kendall. We have lots of trees around our property, so the little brush birds have an oasis. I would probably have an even greater variety of birds if I would put out something other than sunflower seeds. But, those other seeds create a lot of weeds. I don't mind a few sunflowers sprouting here and there.:D
