Peregrine, Woodpeckers, Cardinal and more May 4, 2011

Cardinal - loved this shot because of the background colours.

Had a really nice day. Carol and I went to see the peregrines, what a show, stopped in to see the Red Tailed Hawk on the nest (just her tail), then birding at home. Saw orioles, hummingbirds, grosbeaks and more. The below shots I enjoyed as they all seemed to have a fun hair day
Downy Woodpecker


Had over 20 blue jays today

Male and Female Cardinal


Goldfinch

Saw an amazing territorial battle at the nest sight. Poor Turkey Vulture was just flying over the building when he was attacked by the Peregrine Falcon over and over again.
