COBirders,
Two Red-winged Blackbirds showed up in my backyard this afternoon, an unusual occurrence but not really rare. Earlier this month I had a pair of Lesser Goldfinches, the male's back appearing black but the ambient light was less than good. Lately the number of American Goldfinches has increased to about a dozen. Today after the snow 41 White-winged Doves came to gobble up cracked corn while the usual juncos (all sub-species except white-winged), House Finches, American Robins, House Sparrows, Northern Flickers, etc. came to eat and drink.
I've uploaded a few photos to my Flickr site http://www.flickr.com/photos/brightsfotos/. If you're not familiar with Flicker, to see in chronological order open and scroll down to the bottom of the dove photos, click on the one on the right, then click again to enlarge. To continue click on the "newer" button above the pic. The photos were shot through two panes of window glass and my comments are for non-birders but you may still find some enjoyment in them.
