The Male House Finch and seen below is the female House Finch.
The Carolina Wren eating some suet.
The Red-bellied Woodpecker love the suet.
Top row, the male Goldfinch getting his summer colors and the male Red-bellied woodpecker. Bottom row, 2 Dark-eyed Juncos and a female House Finch.
I keep seeing this Yellow-bellied Sapsucker sitting in our Rhododendron outside our front window. He is taken over the Cardinal's job of flying to the window scaring it's rival away.

ReplyDeleteThose red cardinals are so incredibly beautiful !!! Such a shame that these beautiful birds do not live in the Netherlands. the woodpecker is also a beautiful bird. That Carolina Wren is really super to see.

DeleteHi Eileen, oh that entry image of the male American Cardinal is so beautiful. He takes the show, doesn't her!? The other birds are just a lovely. I have not seen as many birds that migrate here in Winter months due to the mild weather we have had so far. I would love for my Dark Eyed Juncos to return for a while. Happy Weekend. Thank you for all that you do~

DeleteBeautiful cardinal! It's nice to see the goldfinch getting ready for Spring! We have had a sapsucker on our mahogany tree and are worried about the damage they have done in the past. We shoo him (or her-- an immature) and suddenly it has not visited again for the past week or so.

DeleteAw sweet friends to have close by all colorful and fun to watch. Don't forget the Backyard Bird Watch Feb 14-17. I enjoy the sapsucker in my yard and today one got really low on a holly tree and my dog Annie chased it! Never has she done that before. Glad I was there to referee.
