More Birds, Backyard and Beyond

Still digging my Fujinon 55-200mm zoom lens, seems to call me to taking bird pictures!  




Pretty sure this is a Carolina Wren, perhaps the same one I posted 5/28.  I'm thinking this is a juvenile, based on the small wings you can see below:

 It had just spent some time fluffing the feathers on its chest, then stretched its wings.  Rather short!

I beleive this is a female Red-Winged Blackbird, based on suggestions from Facebook, and subsequent internet digging.  This one's not in the backyard, but is at Watershed Nature Center.


I especially like this photo, She seems almost regal, and struck a nice pose.
