    I have been glad to see it pick up a little with more bird action...I haven't seen the hawk but he swoops in so fast he is easy to miss...Here are some that were in my yard today....

    Great photographs again Sherry. Those birds know where they're well off don't they?

    Thank you eileen and Frank....I am not sure how many birds I am going to keep getting, it kind of goes in streaks. All depending when the hawk comes through.

    Just love all these pics Sherry! I see all these critters, but I can't get my camera out to get the shots. Thanks for sharing!

    We enjoy our cardinals and the little brown birds, too. I don't have a long range lens on my camera so will have to try to sneak up on them. There are sometimes more than a dozen under the feeders. One day I scooped up the seed that gets on the ground under the feeder and tossed it all around the yard. Plenty of small birds all over the yard that day.
