Yard Birds

I chanced to look out the window the other day and saw a little downy woodpecker working over one of our crab apple trees like crazy.  I scanned the rest of the yard and saw several other birds flitting about.  That was enough for me.  Out I went with my camera.

Who needs to go far afield to photograph wildlife?  Not me, as it turned out.  I had plenty of activity right in my own yard.  Below are photos of the birds I managed to photograph.
