Challenge: Bird visitors in your yard. July 27th through July 31st.
With the Pandemic and stay at home orders, I've found that watching the birds visit my yard has been somewhat of a relief. If you like to photograph birds in your yard, then this challenge is for you! Can you identify your visitors?

Sunnybuck Thanks for hosting the challenge. With such wonderful group to start the challenge. I have no birds around my home, just squirrels and the neighbors Cats.

Think the first one is a downey woodpecker, male....6th one looks like white throated Sparrow
Interesting collection of birds in your area, Sunny!
Thanks for hosting, Sunny!

It is a relaxing time passer. Thanks for starting.
A few birds seen around my yard recently: Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, a Grey Catbird, a Pine Warbler , a Field Sparrow,
Yesterday we had a Yellow Breasted Sapsucker here, but I couldn't get a good picture of it! Hopefully it will return again today.

Thanks for hosting! We have lots of birds both at home and at the cottage, probably what I shoot most often. Here are a few I’ve grabbed over the past couple of weeks.

Nice set! I don’t know that I have ever seen a Baltimore oriole outside of a photo. Wish we could attract them but somebody else eats the oranges and grape jelly!
