[Birdtalk] Hummer and Cassin's Finch Photos

[Tim Avery]

This evening I spent about an hour or so watching the bird feeder that is now present on the southside of the Cliff Lodge at Snowbird.  Besides the plethora of PINE SISKIN, and handful of CASSIN'S FINCH, several "gray-headed" Dark-eyed Junco were using the feeder, while American Robin were pulling worms from the lawn. Several Broad-tailed Hummingbird were visiting the sugar water in the same area.  A female BLACK-CHINNED HUMMINGBIRD was seen several times taking in nectar from the flowers along the walkways here, and a surprise male BLACK-HEADED GROSBEAK visited the feeder twice.  I thought it was awfully high for this bird.

I was able to get some shots of both Broad-tailed Hummingbird and Cassin's Finch, as well as a few other species:
