Swallows

Red-wing Blackbird

Anna's Hummingbird ( I'm pretty sure that's what it is although I didn't catch the color )

You have some great shots there - the Teal and Shoveler in particular!

Thank you RobG, the Teal was a real treat to see, first time for me, and the Shovelers were fun to watch. I am glad you enjoyed them.

Appreciate the comment ajilec. I was able to get very close to this one. The heron was focused on it's next meal in this shot.

Thanks Ash! I really wish the hummingbirds would have came out better though. The light was a bit hard.
I am glad you enjoyed them and I love sharing.

Thanks a bunch Bob. The blackbirds are very active right now and easy to catch. I love the bright red on their wings. Hope to get an in flight shot soon.

I found one more of the hummingbird that has a little color showing.
