Birds of a feather, please perch together...

Will the circle of Robins please pipe down...we can't hear the goldfinches...

Robin dear, is that a cedar waxwing sitting there between us?
Backyard_Birds-08.jpg
All in favor, please tweet aye!

Knock knock....

If Tom Nuttall could see me now....

Aaah..my precious....

This bath is for the birdies!
Backyard_Birds-14.jpg
Aaah...delightful
Backyard_Birds-15.jpg
On these warm winter days, a drink hits the spot.

The fake bird is kinda lame, but the water looks great!
Backyard_Birds-17.jpg
Come on, take the photo already.

All right, I'll pose, but make it quick :-)

People confuse me with my cousin, Blue, but my name is Scrub!
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-10.jpg
Who built this crazy contraption anyway?
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-11.jpg
Just look at all that birdseed. There must be a feed hole around here somewhere!
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-19.jpg
Splish, splash, I was takin' a bath...
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-20.jpg
Go find your own bathtub--this one's occupied!!
Yeah, my feathers are ruffled, but this is so delightful...
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-21.jpg
It's only one small step for a man, but it's one giant leap for a birdie.
I'll just puff myself up and blend in with these rocks.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-22.jpg
If you get any closer, I'm outta here!
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-23.jpg
I don't understand why they call me a lesser goldfinch--when I puff up, I'm just as big as all my cousins
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-24.jpg
...They'll never find me here...
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-25.jpg
Yellow is the color of my true love's feathers....
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-26.jpg
"I think there's a green pig on the other side of that rock" "Shhh...just look for the eggs so we can get outta here!"
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-27.jpg
Oh what a beautiful morning.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-28.jpg
I can't get the theme from the Pink Panther out of my head.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-30.jpg
I need to scribble a thank-you note to the nice folks who put out this sugar water for me.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-31.jpg
The pause that refreshes...
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-32.jpg
This sugar water is addictive :/(
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-33.jpg
I need to bookmark this bird feeder in my GPS log.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-34.jpg
All quiet on the Eastern front....
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-35.jpg
Where are you guys? You were supposed to be here 10 minutes ago.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-36.jpg
Dinner time!
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-37.jpg
Today is All Sparrows Day...except for that weird bird on my right.
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-38.jpg
Aaah...entoxicating!
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-39.jpg
It's the real thing!
Backyard_Birds-Mar2012-40.jpg
