BEAUTIFUL BIRDS IN OUR YARD IN DEL RIO!

This bird is an Orange Oriole of some kind. It was BIG and on the hummingbird feeder. I think it's a Lichtenstein's Oriole also known as an Altamira.

A male Painted Bunting. All of the photos on this blog I had to get off the internet. My camera doesn't zoom that well and birds are fast critters. They are a member of the Cardinal family.

Another Oriole picture. Ours looked like this. We sure ain't in Pecos anymore! We also have tons of red finches, dove, hummingbirds, cardinals etc. We must be getting REALLY old if we are accidentally watching birds and then dragging out the bird book to identify. Only crispy critters do that.
