Picky Wren and other random bird feeder action shots
Apparently this little wren didn't like what I had to offer or saw something worth digging for.
Always fun to catch them in flight

Thanks Bishop
Hey...The first photo is some sort of wren. I think the second photo is a chickadee in flight and I'm not sure at all about the perched bird or the exact species of birds in the third...I just always call them sparrows (shrug) Tambra? anyone? I screwed up and started listing latin names with all my wildlife shots so can someone help ID these?

No, I don't think so although it does look very similar. They have a prominent white throat patch

The middle one looks very much like a uk chaffinch in his/her winter wear. Ive no idea if you have them in your country.

Wow - great feeder pics there Brett - when you told me you had some feeding pics I was of course thinking of snakes!
Carolina Wren - notice the white eye stripe?
Female Ruby Crowned Kinglet
Male Chipping Sparrow
Do I win a prize???? 
PS- when we going birding? I may have to drag you up Kennesaw Mountain - I heard it is a good spot |
