    Lovely songbirds! That last one might be a chickadee. Not sure.
    I thoroughly enjoyed these,

    Oh I love, love LOVE birdwatching!
    The yellow and black are American Goldfinch.
    (Also in the very last shot with regular finches--red ones are the males).
    Third from bottom is a chickadee.
    What a fun post. And catching a shot of a hummingbird is always a challenge!

    Jo, Your photos are getting better and better each time you go out on one of your excursions!! The birds you captured are amazing. Those little chipmunks are precious, too! Talked to Susie Q- she wants to go up to Troy to visit Marge. Give her a shout and maybe we can get a trip planned! hugs, Sue
