July 24, 2012: Birds of a Feather Flock Together...

July 24, 2012:

Many species of birds came to visit

while I was working in my yard in Juneau, Alaska today, 

although I was only able to capture 

a few photographs of them...

[Special thanks to Connie for assisting me in identifying them] 

A vibrant Varied Thrush (male)...

An early arrival of a somewhat rare Cedar Waxwing 
(the Bohemian species have a orange hue under the tail vs white),
a treat to view such a beautiful species 
that normally tends to arrive here in Juneau in the fall...

A mature Dark-Eyed Junco (Junko) that has
a seed in its mouth...

A male Red-Breasted Sapsucker Woodpecker
tapping for its mate...

A female Red-Breasted Sapsucker Woodpecker
posturing and answering the male...

Another female is feeling ousted,
her look says it all...
