The Eastern Bluebird just stops by looks in one of the houses and leaves again. The Chickadee is still using this birdhouse.
These images were all taken from my dining room window, the feeders are all hanging from our deck.
The Rose-breasted Grosbeaks have been around for a few days, The last day I saw these male Grosbeaks was on May 3rd. I am still seeing a couple of females at my feeders as of May 11th.
Below is the pretty colorful male Rose-breasted Grosbeak with a female lower in the suet feeder.
The Gray Catbird is an occasional visitor to the feeder and my yard.
Below is the Gray Catbird with the Pine Warbler. They do not mind sharing the suet.
I was surprised to see and hear this Black-throated Blue Warbler tapping on our den window. I hope it does not make a habit of throwing himself against the window, the Cardinal gave up on his window reflection. Not the best photo, it was taken out the window and there are too many rhododendron branches.
Thanks to all my visitors and for all the wonderful comments. I appreciate everyone who loves critters and has linked up their critter post.

It is wonderful to be able to watch the pretty birds from your dining room window and take snapshots of them. Thank you for hosting. Have a beautiful weekend.
We have been seeing most of those birds here too, as well as many migratory birds that are just here briefly. It's an exciting time of year.
be well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Well trained birds (not really) but you do take the best closeups Eileen.

it is great when you can sit in comfort in your home and watch the birds feeding on your deck Eileen. Thanks for hosting, stay safe and have a wonderful weekend.
It's always worth looking out the window at you! This rose-breasted grosbeaks is an adorable bird the colors look so great but so do the other birds.
Hopefully he will soon know better to walk in the bushes than to want to go in the window.
It's always nice to watch the birds!
I wish you a nice weekend!
Greetings Elke
Hello Eileen. Fantastic birds and photos. Gray catbird is beautiful. Have a great weekend. Stay safe.
Hello Eileen,
It is a pleasure to be outside this time of year! All birds are so active and so sweet!
Thanks for hosting!
Enjoy your weekend!
Beautiful birds pics.
Happy Weekend.
Hello Eileen,
Beautiful series of photos of the birds that come into your garden.
None of the species can be seen here in the Netherlands.
Would you like to post my link I still can't.
I wish you a very nice weekend.
Best regards Irma
so beautiful image of the Bluebird and Catbird. Love to see them. And the Black-throated Blue Warbler, such a fighter. But not good behavior. I have seen it once. Think it was in Costa Rica. A bird was VERY angry on it´s reflection in a side mirror of a car. Take care Eileen, stay safe.
The Gray Catbird is a new discovery for me.
Thanks for sharing.
Happy and safe weekend to you!
Hello Eileen,
You show so many beautiful birds. The Gray Catbird was very pretty.
Have a nice weekend!
So great that the grosbeaks stayed around so long. We have many catbirds all winter but nearly all of them disappeared at once about two weeks ago. We usually see Pine Warblers during the winter, but I only saw one this year-- partly because the best spot for them was a park which has been closed. Stay safe!
The window shots are great. It's nice to see the birds stopping by for a bite to eat at the feeders. Have a wonderful day and weekend, Eileen and thanks for hosting.
Lovely birds.
...Eileen, you certainly have a nice view from your window, thanks for hosting and sharing!
Backyards do have a way of bringing joy don't they? Right now a make Baltimore Oriole is feeding on one of the oranges set out for him. Now that's not a bad way to start the day - for him, or for me.
Muito lindos os passarinhos que alegram nossos dias! bjs, chica e ótimo fim de semana!
We had three Grosbeaks around for about a week. That's better than last year when we only saw one for a day. Nice that you get to see catbirds and warblers!
You have such a variety!!!
I haven't seen catbirds in two years. It's nice to see yours!
Have a great one. Thanks for hosting! Stay safe.
Hi Eileen, you have so much beautiful birds. Beautiful colors. Greetings Caroline
I imagine the beautiful dining room you can see the beautiful birds in a large yard ..., very impressive.
We just went through a week of having a robin battering our windows. I'm going to write about it soon. This is the second time for us and it is disturbing. All your birds are familiar to this area as well. Amazing how far this little beauties spread.
Such incredible birds right outside the door. Heaven!
That Warbler is gorgeous and I love the Grosbeak! Such fun to watch our feeders in Spring time! Take care and have a nice weekend! Thanks for hosting!
We’ve never had a bluebird in the garden, maybe this will be the year. Enjoy the weekend.
Another batch of lovely bird photos, Eileen! Hope you are well and staying safe.
PS: Thank you for hosting!
AWESOME images today, the one of the bluebird has to go in a frame!!!!!!!!! i don't see most of these birds at my feeders, our birds are usually so similar!!!! i do however see the catbirds and they have taken over my yard and feeders!! i can't believe how many i am seeing!! i am waiting for goldfinches, they have left "to change their clothes" and have not returned!!
such a great post today, beautiful images and many thanks for hosting!!!
I love your bird photo's. They are so fun to watch. I saw my first red bird yesterday, and it made me so happy. :)
Have a good weekend, Eileen!
xoxo
Love the bluebirds; they are so sweet. Your bird feeders bring in a wide variety of birds. Hope you have a wonderful day!
Hi Eileen! Lovely pictures! Happy weekend!
The male Grosbeaks are simply gorgeous. 5he bright colours are amazing. Your summer visitors are like ours,the males arrive earlier so as to set up territory for the later arriving females. The Grey Catbird is super smart too. Have a lovely weekend Eileen. Thanks for the linkup too.
That is such an awesome shot of the bluebird...don't you just love standing and seeing all the birds from your window?

I especially like that sweet pic of the Bluebird, Eileen! Stay safe!
Hi Eileen I love the Eastern Bluebird and as always the Grey Catbird is my favorite. Thanks for hosting this meme. I linked up. Have a great weekend. Be safe Jo
A lot of beautiful birds! I also enjoy to watch them in my garden. Thanks for sharing the photos.
That beautiful black throated warbler is one I was searching for a couple weeks ago here in Texas...I see he arrived safely in your area! Thanks for hosting Eileen.
~Anni, at I'd Rather B Birdin
I think the bluebird is the most beautiful. Thanks for giving us a place to share and meet each others. - Margy
I love watching the birds from the window. You have a very nice variety! I
m not familiar with the black-throated warbler. Nice to see.
The Grosbeaks are in such good plumage at the moment, and your Catbird is very similar to our Blackcap.
Ps...thanks for visiting with me at Hootin' Anni's too!
You definitely have a wonderful variety in your backyard, Eileen. I am impressed with the first photo and the clever bird perched on a single wee screw on a wall. :)
Very nice. I love the bluebird !
Excellent shot of the bluebird!!!
Gorgeous birds! I love the little catbird.
Hello to all of your sweet birds. Right now we are enjoying the nascar like flights of our swallows. They really are birds that seem to enjoy flying fast and furious! No luck with my photograph skills to capture them in flight. Hope you have a good weekend!
Wow, I'd love to see a Black-throated Blue Warbler. Thanks for hosting and stay safe.
How lovely to see so many different birds from your window. You must make your garden a very safe place to visit.
Lovely birds and shots... Happy Sunday and week ahead
As always, I thank you for taking time out in your day to show off your birds with us at I'd Rather B Birdin this week.
Great birds in todays post! I've never seen a catbird come to my suet...that is awesome. I hope that BTBW did not crash the window again this time of year birds get a little bit crazy! I have not had the hummers like normal how about you? I used to see like 4 or 5 hummers fighting on the feeder, this yr I've seen one male and one female.
Thank you Anni! Enjoy your day!

Great ornithology Eileen, love it.
Beautiful birds .. I’ve only seen the Rose breasted grosbeaks a couple of times .. it would be amazing g to have them as backyard birds!
Oh dear Eileen you are so lucky to have such beautiful birds around you all the time :)))
how fortunate to be able to see them from your room window :)
i loved each shot ,these are stunning creatures and your way of photography makes them more special
more joy and peace to you and your's my friend!
Thanks Sondra! The Catbirds come and go to the feeder, I do not see them every day. I usually only see a pair of hummer at my feeders, maybe more when the young are a little older. Happy birding, enjoy your day!
Thanks Bob! Have a great new week!
