Yesterday, I spent a little time at the office window, "talking" to the birds.
I have the window open when I take these pictures,
and keep my fingers crossed that no one flies inside the house.
I took a lot of pictures but only some are worth sharing.
I love my Blue Jays
They are friendly, they pose for pictures and they alert other birds when a Hawk is present.
They get a bad rap for being so loud but it is their alert to other birds that make them loud.
They are mainly blue and unmistakeable, beautiful when their crest is up!
Mourning Dove
The Male House Finch
This is a very common bird at the feeders, they are very easy to photograph.
The Female House Finch
Also very common at the feeders, they are also very easy to photograph.
Chickadee

Fantastic! You have an excellent place to photograph them. Have you ever heard your jays mimic a hawk? Ours will do it sometimes to scare the other birds off the feeders. LOL!
Number 3 was my favorite.
Hello Debbie,
Awesome captures of the Blue Jays! I love the sweet Doves, House Finches and the cute Chickadees. Great collection of birds and photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post! Take care,enjoy your day! Have a happy weekend! PS, thanks so much for leaving me a comment.
Sweet buddies you have.
You truly do have the pretty visitors! Why, I wouldn't mind if a Blue Jay sat on my window and chatted a bit. He truly is a pretty fellow.
Debbie, I love all the bird pictures. Great job. They all look so nice. I would love to hear some bird songs right now. LOL Blessings, xoxo, Susie
Wow !!!Your bird photos are gorgeous ! It's a great joy to photograph these bird species!
Happy weekend !
Greg and I were just saying that we haven't seen as many Blue jays around the yard lately, I love their coloring too, I think we have a few of those house finches, I wasn't sure what they were, Always enjoy your bird pictures :)
Have a wonderful weekend!
Your birds are so beautiful, I always enjoy seeing them.
Their colours and markings so lovely.
Have a good weekend.
All the best Jan
Beautiful pictures you are so lucky to have such beautiful birds.
I love the pretty birds that come to the feeders! We don't see Blue Jays very often but we are seeing a lot of house finches and chickadees right now. And guess what....there's a big ole hawk sitting on the roof of the house across the street right over the bird feeder. Where's a Blue Jay when you need one! heehee!
I was about to say what Brian said, Debbie...LOL!! The Jays here are very pushy and chase off my little ones like the sparrows, finches, nuthatch, and chickadees. Beautiful photos! You must have a very long/strong lens!!...:)jp
Once again I am blown away by the detail in your pics! They are wonderful.
I think you are right about the juvenile Coopers Hawk as there are adults in the area during the summer.
Incredible detail in your pictures!
Oh, the photos of the Blue Jay are stunning. I think they look regal. Of course, I love the Mourning Dove. We have had them nest here. Then the other birds are adorable too. I just love your bird posts.
Blessings and hugs!
Wonderful bird portraits! It's nice that you have a pretty background there.
Fabulous images Debbie How marvellous to sit in the warmth and comfort of your home and watch al these girds so closely outside
I love your shots of the birds I commonly see. I never see finches however. Thank you for sharing, Debbie. Take care.
Beautiful! Blue Jay photos are my favorites today
Have a blessed day!
These photos are just phenomenal! I have just purchased a Canon Rebel t7i/800D camera and am trying to learn how to use it. Do you mind sharing what kind of camera you use, and what settings you use for your bird photos. 99% of my photos are of the birds. :D I am a nature lover. Thanks for sharing these with us.
Now that's a conversation worth having! What lovely birds you've shared. Enjoy your weekend and stay safe.
I love seeing your birds. I too, like the Blue Jays. Their antics with peanuts can be quite entertaining .
One can always tell when a blue jay is in the neighborhood. They even squawk to let me know if the feeder is low on seed :) Beautiful photos.
A wonderful selection of birds. The bluejay is my favorite. That 2nd shot is amazing, shows off the details on the bird so well.
