I was out last Sunday morning and saw a Chickadee in the pine tree that I hadn't shot this year. It did come out of the pines but was gone in a flash. I saw bird activity in the Ohio Buckeye Tree so I started shooting. There were two Downy Woodpeckers in the tree and I managed to capture one. I don't know what he found interesting about the buckeye but he was checking it out.
Then a Red-bellied Woodpecker appeared on a lower branch. One photo is all it gave up.
The Chickadees did appear in the branches and I was lucky enough to catch two.
They then bounced around the tree and this was the best I could do.
There was a House Sparrow on the bush near, it was a little too far but I liked it's look in the overcast morning.
The neighborhood Blue-jay showed up after the sun had come out.
I do hope you enjoyed the morning as much as I did.

Thank you for your wishes FG and hey, as much as I am in awe with the birdie I am overwhelmed by the shapes of this tree too...very nice :D
That blue-jay is amazing!
Great bird pictures!
Someday when I get a better camera, I'm gonna be competing with ya. tee hee
I love your photos. Great catches.
Your birds are lovely!
Thanks for visit my ABC.
This little history of three animals was very interesting!
They lived together for some years.
A day, each one take its own way: then they was separated for ever, and I don't know what happened...
wonderful morning indeed.. thanks FG..
So that it how a chickadee looks like. Very cute. I like the blue Jay too. Have a nice day FG.
You had a great bunch of visitors!! Loved seeing the Downy - just recently they've started to come back to my yard.
I loved all the photos, especially the nuthatch in the fifth frame. What a nice morning, indeed.
Great shots as always, FG!
You're getting so good at this! Well done!
Cheers, Klaus
Wonderful compilation. I think I'm going to fly!!!
My favorite of these is the vibrant colored bluejay.
We hit 42 last night too.
I wish we could train bluejays to inspect the lawns for weeds as well as bugs.
Some great birds there F.G. Your blue jay is a beautiful bird. Our jay is very beautiful too, but I think the US bird wins on this occasion!
Wonderful post, one day I'll be able to photograph birds.
Love the bird-especially the bluejay!
Great series. Love all of them.
Very nice bird photos! Glad you got the Downy Woodpecker. All look so good. Take care!

Hello Fish
When I was little always saw the woodpecker in the region where I grew up. Today they are gone. I think I lost space for the growth of the city. The Rio de Janeiro has now a population of six million inhabitants. Fortunately, our forests are in mountainous regions, as one of my last post. Where the birds can live without our interference.
Those are great! A nice variety. Wonder what he saw in the buckeye? Maybe a bug :-) I have to lure my birds in with feeder food, but I get to see a lot that way and they get fat!
Great photos! However, I believe the Northern Flicker is actually a Red-bellied Woodpecker. Too much red on the back of the neck 8v)
I can't get a good picture of a bird on the ground. You did good!!
All of your pics of colorful birds are wonderful, but I was drawn to that house sparrow picture for some reason. Maybe it reminds me of how I look and feel in the early morning before I've had my coffee!
Great bird shots FG..love the striking colour and pattern of the blue jay!! :D
