Here is a White-throated Sparrow and some of the many Pine Siskins that were busy eating high up in the tops of the Spruce Trees :
White-throated Sparrow - I've often seen this species eat Red Osier Dogwood berries. I'm now beginning to think its their favorite food :
Pine Siskin : Eating, funnily enough, Pine seeds :-)
Actually , make that three species ...
Northern Flicker - There were also many of these around. Here's a male with a female in the background :

Great captures, Nick! You need to let me in on how you get that close to these songbirds... ;)
Cheers, Klaus
Thankyou guys :-) A friend of mine from the Uk designed my new banner based on photos I chose. I think he did a great job too.
Klaus, the trick is a long lens, and lots of patience lol
Looking good Nick, stunning photos all timed brilliantly, the flicker always remind me of the green woodpecker, nice one.
Thanks Mike. Yes the Green Woodpeckers and Flickers really are very similar, I know both really love to feed on the ground.
