Nice shots! @TexasCobrathese are good examples of a female painted bunting for you, since you were wondering.,

Thank you IKLand.

I dream of getting a shot like that!  I could crop mine all day and still never fill the frame!

Thanks,

She was feeding her offspring and I missed it.  Kind of bummed me out but maybe I will get another chance

It's nice when a bird decides to perch right in front of you. Quite pleased with this one.

Got many great shots of this very cooperative juvenile Cooper's Hawk, but going with this one:

From the day before the hawk above. Second time seeing a Roadrunner (first time was earlier that day in a neighboring hotspot, but this might be a different bird). Couldn't get any truly great shots of it, but I like this one the most even though it's facing away:

Yep. Didn't see or hear any that day, but seen some on previous outings in the immediate area.
