Zach has been diligent about filling our bird feeder lately and it has paid off. Normally a rare sighting has turned into a vacation retreat for the Lazuli Bunting bird. Not one or two but tens of these birds have been showing up to visit our feeder. The males are the pretty blue headed bird below. The red headed bird is the Cassin's Finch.
An Orielle and a Western Tanager have also made appearances but we haven't snapped a photo of them yet. We've really enjoyed watching them and attempting to name them from the high tec book we picked up at Costco on bird species.

Great pictures. We followed your lead and filled our feeder on Sunday afternoon. All of the feed was gone within three hours. Them birds are hungry! Or they think winter is coming...
Us too. I don't know who eats more the dogs, chickens or all the birds! I can't keep up!
Pretty bird pictures.
Wish we had the Buntings you have! Gorgeous!
