A freak snow storm meant lots of hungry birds turned up at our door..some we don't usually see..

like Grackles and redwing blackbirds...

Nice shots - good saturation and nicely crisp. I'm partial to redwing blackbirds, so my favorite is that second, but (s)he does look cold!
Thanks for sharing.

That last Grackle with the snow on his head, looks downright miserable. Thanks for commenting.

Great shots. Spring is sure taking its time back east.

I saw your other shots and now I see these. You've been really busy today! Love the last one - he looks as though he is absolutely through with winter!

It's going up to 18 on the weekend... but it's -12 right now, so, yes, it's taking it's time.

I was determined to get one of every bird at the feeder. The only ones I missed were the big Crows and Ravens. If those guys see even the smallest movement, they're gone before you blink. It's really hard to get a camera pointed at them. I try to move slow , but not slow enough so far.
