    They are wonderful, Glenda. I really like to see photos of those birds, they're so decorative.

    Ach Glenda, never mind the storm door...those are very good pics. I especially find the third one down from the top quite interesting with the shadow off to the right. One can see the shadow sharper and more clearly than the male himself...very clever shooting.
    Thanks for showing these colourful pics.
