We get a ton of them too! But, they stay year round, pretty much here. Love this in B&W! Gives a great mood!

perfect composition and backlight

Nicely silhouetted!

For me it's the red-winged blackbirds, killdeer and hummingbirds. I'm just so excited to be able to open the windows in MARCH (unheard of) and to hear all the birds singing!

Love your little bird and the contrast and composition! Happy First Day of Spring!

Song birds bring such joy when they arrive and plant themselves outside our lives. This is a fantastic b/w picture.

Officially that means it's our first day of autumn - what a shame...
