I know lots of people on this site like bird pictures. These two were at my hummingbird feeder today. Photo was taken through double pane kitchen window. Some PP in PaintShopPro.

Nice shot. I get lots of bees at our feeder, but no birds other than the hummers.

Math78 - It's always a joy to see birds from other regions - that Bullock's Oriole is spectacular. And not bad at all shot through a window. Thanks!!!

Crystal clear shot. My hummingbird feeder was taken over by ants and bees. When the bees located the feeder the hummers never came back. If I tried to get near it, the bees would come at you.

Very nice, the Oriole is outstanding. A touch of Canola oil on each feeding port, the bees will be gone! Ants you have to get at the base of your shepard hook or pole. Hummers and other visitors will enjoy! Jeff

Thanks everybody. The woodpecker is around everyday, but the oriole has only come once. I was very lucky to get some pictures.

I, too, have Hummingbird feeders. I get Hooded Orioles (lately) and Gila Woodpeckers but also Northern Flickers. Last year had lots of bees, none this year so far. Tiny, tiny ants that get inside the feeder. Isn't that Oriole spectacular!
