Lazuli Bunting and Lark Sparrow

[ChromeScholar]

Two new birds for the list this Morning.

First the Lazuli Bunting. My wife yelled "There's a blue and red bird out on the feeder!" I came running and found this...

Then, a little later I spotted the Lark Sparrows...

Here's a couple of shots with the Lark Sparrow and a Chipping Sparrow obligingly posing for comparison...

Oh, and a female Brown-Headed Cowbird, another first visitor to the feeders

All four are very pretty!

Very nice! I like the first several of your photos very much. The vivid color of the birds is perfect with that background.

I so wanted that Tamron lens, and even found a few for about 350.00. Eventually though I made myself not spend all that money.

I ended up buying the Canon 55-250 IS lens. Not as nice as yours, but I can't wait til it gets here anyway.

I need to put up some birdfeeders....and give you a run for your money!

The 55-250 IS is a nice lens, and I considered buying one before settling on the Tamron. I wanted the extra reach.
