The half inch or so of snow we got last night melted quickly, leaving a wet sheen on the plants and mulch that covers most of the yard by mid-morning. Birds where hopping around on the fence, and scavenging the trumpet vine pods soon after the snow melted giving me the opportunity to photograph them through the windows, some in serious need of cleaning. I’m not much of an ornithologist, but I believe the birds in order are a thoughtful Dark-eyed Junco, a melancholy Lesser Goldfinch and a rather intense looking Spotted Towhee.
Off Center & Not Even 
Those are the birds I have in my yard now also. That’s is a really good pic of the towhee. In my yard they stay under shrubs and look for seeds dropped from the feeders. I love the juncos – they arrive here just as the humming birds are leaving.
What lens you have for these shots ?
Olympus 35-100mm ƒ2.0
You’d better clean the windows if you are using that Olympus lens, the designers of that lens would have nightmares if they knew that 🙂
Three super bird pictures !!!!!!!!!!!
