I’m away right now.

It is in my yard, and I know that this is the bird that I have constantly had all year.

Not sure if my editing is making photos better or worse.

Yep. A breeding adult male American Goldfinch. Here’s a photo of a yellow cardinal( not my photo) goldfinch

Ok, that’s fair. I count heard only birds on my life list. But if you want to only include them , if you see it, that’s fine.

The first looks like a Female or immature Costa’s to me, but without the tail, I can’t be positive. How’d you rule out Broad-Tailed for the second bird? Sorry, I have little experience with any hummingbirds other than Allen’s and Anna’s.

You mean, looks, good to me?

@The Bird Nuts, @Hasan

@Caley Thomas, how do you find so many great birds? I’m jealous of almost everything you post!

Yes! Not kidding!

Allen’s hummingbird.
