We have Hummingbirds too, but I haven't gotten around to trying to photograph them yet.  

Here's a couple Oriole pics since they arrived here about 2 days ago!

Very Cool Mel!  I've only seen them here once a couple years ago.  I had one that liked to peck at its reflection on my bathroom window in the morning.  It only hung around for a couple weeks and was gone.  A beautiful bird.

Another down side to living in a desert, we don't get much in the way of colorful birds! Great pics!

I have a couple more clips, but before I grabbed the camera he was going nutso.  It's the window right next to my desk.

Yes, exactly like that!  Same time every morning too.  I had never seen one before that.  Cool video Mel.

There are different birds that like to peck on different windows during the year.  One year there was a crow that would not stop pecking on my den window.  At first I was thinking it was Katie walking through the house with heels on.
