Carolina Wren
Thank you when I looked it up the closest I could come was a Sage Wren. For a little bird they have a Large voice. Thanks for looking ! :thumbup:

Very nice photos with that lens combination. The first picture is Black-crested Titmouse, second is White-winged Dove, the third appears to be Carolina Wren.

Thank you for the info, I thought the first bird was a juvenile cardinal as most times I spot it there a most of the time a male & female adult cardinals around. It is always nice to learn new things. Thanks again

Your first bird is a Tufted Titmouse. We have them nesting in our yard. Very pretty pictures of the birds.

Good shots, marquis1955! In #2 that dove sure doesn't look like he's going to have a very comfortable landing!

Because of the perch situation he came into land on was just the top of our picket fence with feeders and many other places to perch is why I was able to get that shot while the Dove was trying to balance him/herself. Thank you for taking time to look !

If you look closely, this bird has a white forehead, the tufted titmouse has a black forehead. The crest is also larger than the tufted titmouse. It is possibly a hybrid tufted - black crested, which occur in central Texas where their ranges overlap. I still believe it has more characteristics of the Black-crested Titmouse.
