Saturday Critters ~ 109 ~

Sharing a cute little Tufted Titmouse, checking in at the feeders!




These pretty birds entertain me all day long.
They wait patiently in this tree for their turn at the feeders.
Once at the feeders they "grab and go" quickly,
and make frequent return trips.
I call them my "frequent flyers"!
They favor sunflower seeds and peanuts and drink frequently at the bird bath.
I don't think I have ever seen them bathe.

Still can't get over how you see these regularly! They very rarely get this far north. I've only seen one in my life.

The warblers and goldfinches are our frequent flyers! I love that pretty band of gold on the titmouse. And how fun that we are purple/lavender sisters! Enjoy your day my friend. Hugs, Diane

I have some and they do that - wait on the branches and then quickly swoop and grab/eat and return...over and over...cute little birds!

i miss watching the birds at the feeder, but with the herd of feral cats camping in our pool area - all I can do is say "oh pretty bird, fly away...fly away". Nice captures.

You got great shots! I really like the one with spread wings. The cold weather must be slowing them down. ;)

Aren't that just beautiful, love that touch of color they have and you have captured some wonderful pics of them. We too have a tree to the left of our bird house that is about 12 feet tall and they love going back and forth from the tree to the feeder.
