Finally caught the male cardinal posing.

Perhaps this is the reason we haven’t seen any hummingbirds yet?

No, for once I am NOT talking about Twitter. Since I got my new telephoto lens (and refilled the bird feeders), I have been obsessed with the bird activity in the backyard.

Yes, I am most definitely a backyard birder. I have a bird book and binoculars. And the new camera lens. But I don’t venture much past my yard.

But in addition to the usual cardinals, chickadees, robins and blue jays, here’s what I’ve seen in my yard just over the past few days:

Mallards

A woodpecker that I am still trying to ID I think this may be a female Red Bellied Woodpecker

Some sparrows with yellow heads, also still trying to id. We think these are Chipping Sparrows

Goldfinches in the Backyard

05.07.2008 by Susan Getgood //

I filled the bird feeders last night and today have seen a pair of goldfinches, chickadees, some sort of sparrow, a woodpecker and a pair of tufted titmouse. And of course the usual blue jays and robins. Managed to get some decent pictures of the finches.

A little blurry but I like it anyway.
