About me: Howdy from Texas! :) I live in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area - just south of Denton. I’ve always loved nature and birds, but it wasn’t until January of 2004 that I started birding as a hobby. I just love it and my hubby enjoys it as well, which is nice! We had our first birds nest (on our front porch) in the spring of 2004 with a nest of Carolina Wrens. There were 5 babies that fledged that spring. In the summer of 2005 we have a Baltimore Oriole pair nesting right above our backyard in the cottonwood trees. They successfully fledged two babies. That was such a delight!
I enjoy birding from my backyard as well as in the field. I’ve got about 115 birds on my life list so far. I also enjoy gardening and anything to do with nature.
I LOVE the forums out here! Everyone is so friendly and helpful with great advice. Kudos to you all!
Camera specs - for those interested, I now use a Canon 20D, 100-400mm L lens. :)

Commented: This is insane! Wowsers!!! How exciting. I would be so elated if that were to happen at my feeders. Perhaps they're filling up their tanks before migrating on south, ahead of this bad ol hurricane headed (?) our way ...

Commented: Juvie male(s) and friends (foes)?! Congrats! Nice pics. My thought is you've got 2 different juvies, at least it looks that way from your pics.
