A Crow Grabbing A Snack!

I don't know what he's got in his mouth (not sure I want to) but he stole it from another crow on one roof, carried it to another roof (pics above) and ate it in peace. It was quite comical watching him try to keep it from rolling off the roof while pecking away at it. I think a lot of people hate crows (along with pigeons) but I find them interesting and quite beautiful! I really don't know if this is a Raven or not but I think because of his size, maybe it was.

A Visitor To My Backyard!

This hawk landed in the tree and I just happened to have my camera on hand. He was making all kinds of noise and was very close to the eggs in the satellite dish. He finally flew away hopefully before spotting them. The eggs are due to hatch any day now!

What Bird Is This?

I'm trying to identify this bird. If anyone knows, please leave me a comment and let me know :)

New Eggs In An Old Nest!

Remember this nest?? Well, it has 4 new eggs in it! I wasn't sure if house finches re-use old nests but I guess they do. Of course I don't know if it's the same mom or a different one that happened upon a good nest but it's exciting to have them around. In the following picture, I reached a mirror up there to see how many eggs!
