The resident red-tail hawk makes a low pass...
Red-tailed Hawk
Savannah sparrow in the back yard!
Female turkey takes a dust bath in the back orchard
Stirring up the dust!!!
Goldfinch in the canopy near the feeders, back yard
Chestnut-backed chickadee with a sunflower seed
The seed is firmly grasped by both feet on a stout tree branch
And is hammered until the seed is broken open
This beautiful male goldfinch has an extra long toenail!
The male black-headed Grosbeak
Oak Titmouse at he suet feeder
The female black-headed grosbeak
Much more shy, the female black-headed grosbeak, getting some water
