Variety Of Small Birds

I have been so focused on raptors lately that I failed to post photos of the many smaller birds I have encountered.  This post will be an attempt to rectify that.

First, a male northern cardinal...



a female northern cardinal...


a male eastern towhee...


a horned lark...

 
 
a white-throated sparrow...



a hermit thrush...


a male blue jay...



a goldfinch...


an eastern meadow lark...


yellow-bellied sapsucker...

 
a tufted titmouse...



a dark eyed junco...


a male white crowned sparrow...



a female white crowned sparrow...


and last, the diminutive brown creeper...

 
Thanks for visiting, stay well, and remember to notice the small things in your life.
