We've finally identified a few birds! In addition to our friend the cardinal (who will never come close enough for a picture) we now know the names of a few more feathered friends.
Red Winged Blackbird: This one was actually spotted in Chicago while we were on a little trip, but since we've been bird watching so much I took a picture.
American Tree Sparrows: These have been visiting our bird feeder every day, and today I managed to get a couple of pictures while we were in the backyard.
American Robin: There are two of these that are around a lot as well. This one wasn't very afraid of me. He moved very calmly away from me whenever I moved toward him. It's a good thing I have a zoom on my camera or I wouldn't have any of these pictures!
We also spotted some blackbirds today (I think), and our black and white friend whose name I have yet to discover.
Oh, I love bird watching! :) And I'm so excited to have cardinals visiting my bird feeder now. We never had them in Colorado.
