Backyard Birds

After bragging about how many birds we have in our backyard and my friends knowing how many pictures I take, I was asked to post some pictures. So here are some birds that come around often enough and that were interesting enough, that I was able to get pictures.

Noticably missing are several breeds of sparrows, a ruby throat hummingbird, a house wren, grey cardinal, and starlings.

Some birds that I really wish I had been able to get a picture of are a gray Catbird, Inca Dove, Scrub Jay, Barred Owl, Nighthawk, Western Tanager, Yellow Chat, Common Flicker, a Blue Groesbeak and a Rose Breasted Groesbeak.
