Birds that frequent my porch

[REP]

Originally posted in the Lounge; it was suggested I post here, too.

The one of the robin is not a good shot but they refuse to let me get a clear view of them despite the nest being right outside my balcony.

Canon XSi with 250mm zoom in bright daylight.

Here are some of the birds that pester me as I water my plants.

Finches (these are hatchlings):



With one of their parents:



Not the clearest perspective, but there's a robin with a worm on his way to his nest:



And of course, Anna's hummingbirds. These are immature males.

1. Nice photos!!

I love photos of birds. (all animals)

I especially love the last one and the first two...almost as if the bird was sitting for a portrait.

2. so much fun!

I could (almost) be a bird watcher. These are really nice photos.

3. Your compositions are just beautiful.

The bird portraits are gorgeous and the backgrounds are vibrant enough to stand on their own.

9. Beautiful pictures. Love the Bokeh.

Yesterday I photographed a goldfinch in some Black Eyed Susan. I couldn't find the bird because of its coloration. Is the Goldfinch made for the Black Eyed Susan? I finally found the bird, but it blends in so well.
