Bullock's Orioles and Western Tanagers have been frequent visitors to my yard this spring. They both like the grape jelly (as do the house finches)
Very nice. I've been trying to attack both to my yard for a few years.

I'd like to send out a special great big THANK YOU to ETmom for hosting this challenge. It's been about 14 months since I've had the desire or been able to get out with my camera. Your challenge got me out of my funk and it's a wonderful feeling. Almost like joining old friends. Today, I found my first ever Muscovy Duck. Sorry, the first two pics aren't the best focus. I was so excited with the find, that I forgot to turn off the engine of my vehicle. The last one is much clearer.
Your very welcome. The regulars here on the challenge page are the best. For me they have enabled an introvert like me to not only have the courage to post, but to host. For that I 'm thankful.
Nice catch on your Muscovy duck. I learned that you not only have to shut off the engine, but take the key out so the door alarm doesn't scare off the subject.

The downloads are wonderful! I miss feeding the birds.
Thank you. I'm a frugal (sounds better than cheap) feeder. I have a couple places where I put feed. We have bears in the area and I know i would never remember to bring them in every night.

Beautiful capture of the Meadowlark! I have been trying to capture one near us. It is always way across the field! LOL! Will keep looking!

Thank you. I was taking long way home, this one actually let me drive past, turn around, come back and get out of the car.
Very nice set.
