Thursday's Birds

Ok, so this isn't a bird. Jessica spotted this little chipmunk this morning! Hopefully he will stay out of my garden. If not, Dad will set a trap & then we will let him go in a field.

Not sure what this is, maybe a young sparrow?

I think this is a house finch.

I think this is a young sparrow but not sure.

Love this Robin with food in its mouth!

Yellow finch.

Yellow & Red! So pretty!

Not sure about this finch but it's green on back & yellow on belly.

Yellow finch again.

A couple of Doves.

I count at least 6 yellow/green finches. 2 are in flight!

The finches love my redbud tree next to the feeders.

It's hard to see them, but there are at least a dozen sparrows chasing bugs in my garden.

A young robin.

What a beautiful sunset that God graced us with tonight! Perfect way to end the day!

Sparrow. Her nest is inside the swing cross pipe.

Dove.

I think these are sparrows but they all have a yellowish tint to their bellies.

This one was clinging to the tree branch as the wind blew him all around, but he never let go of the branch!

I feel so blessed because God has surrounded me with the beauty of His creation in my own backyard!
