The days have been warmer here in New Jersey and I decided to open the office window...
camera in hand to see what birds would come for a visit.
I have not done this for a few weeks and I really enjoyed this visit with my feathered friends.
Taking 50 pictures of one bird is not unusual for me.
I never really know if I am getting a good image until I put my chip into my computer.
If I am lucky, most will be good.
Once the birds have landed,
they move around a lot...their poses excite me and I want to memorialize them all.
The Male Downy Woodpecker seemed ready for lots of pictures...
*wink*
at me but perhaps they open and close their eyes frequently.
I see this Woodpecker in my yard year round,
it is considered to be the smallest woodpecker in North America.
The male and female are similar, the male has a red patch of feathers on the back of his head.
This bird come in very close to the window.
Although these images are cropped, they are not cropped by much.
Next up, on a cloudy but warm day...
I only see this bird during the winter and it will be leaving soon.
I was so glad to see it before it left!

We get those warblers soon. They are quite the flyers. Great shots!
Lovely visitors!
It one stays still long enough, I take a lot! You never know which pose will be in focus! Enjoy your weekend! Hope it warms up!
You have a couple of cuties right there!
Great photos. :)
I miss my downy woodpeckers who used to come feed on my balcony. Alas, the staff made us take our feeders down... dropped seeds on the floors below me they said.

Beautiful birds you see through your window. I wade through tons of photos to pick out a few that I really like, so I know the feeling.
