Here are a few more, the large group of Cardinals is one of my favorites. Not a great photo by any means, I looked out the kitchen window, and there they were, surrounding the feeders, I grabbed the only camera close and grabbed a few frames, then they were off.

Happy "virus free" New Year to all!!

A juvenile White Tailed Kite was fairly obliging about posing for me and even gave me a few stretches.
