Boring Day at The Feeders ... sigh!

Hi All,
Looks like we're in the 'summer doldrums' for a while. All of the interesting birds have gone north for the summer. This morning we had 47 Lesser Goldfinches, one purple finch and one Ladder-backed woodpecker at the feeders. This Ladder-backed is from last month ... couldn't catch the one today. Going to have to head into the forest to find something more interesting.

Dale, what might be "doldrums" to you could be enjoyable to someone else. We don't have the Lesser Goldfinch or the Ladder-backed here. These are excellent shots for sharpness and composition.
I know what you mean though; I'm getting bored seeing the same Cardinals and Cowbirds day after day.

Thanks Cnut ... appreciate you taking the time to look. Do miss those Cardinals from my Massachusetts days. Just was looking at a few of your old posts. Really like the Barred owls and that Eastern Bluebird! Thanks again.

Thank you! Drdale. I am flattered that you took time to look at them.
That owl has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember.
