This is some sort of sparrow I assume. It has a neat yellow patch on it's rear that caught my attention. This is a tiny/fast flying bird and this sequence took a few tries. Seems he was fly fishing. ;D

This guy found him a nice warm tree hole and wasn't interested in being disturbed.

I believe that is a yellow-rumped warbler, but I am terrible at it and always mis-identifying birds in the field.  It helps to have a nice-sized freeze-frame shot!

You shoulda reached your hand in there. I bet he would have let you scratch his ears. :)

Cool shots indeed!

Your stops are so crisp. Think you can catch a bullet coming out of muzzle?
