I saw a tailless sparrow last year at my feeder. The feathers grew back very quickly. Nice pictures. You have a lot of birds. The mourning doves have found my tube feeder--explosion of grey things when I walk up. Starling, the speckled one.
That starling shot is really good! I finally hung a birdfeeder out, but I'm keeping an eye out for bears, I don't think it's been cold enough for them to have gone to bed for the winter.
Wow .. what an amazing variety of birds you have there! The starling has a mind-blowing feather set - that's the first time I've really seen one up close like this.
The poor little cardinal - hope it's feathers grow out quickly - you wonder what happened to it - did it molt all at the same time - did its tail feathers get caught somewhere and they pulled out as it was struggling??? Just makes you wonder ....
P.S. your background change surprised me - at first I didn't realize it and I kept waiting for the green one to appear - dummy that I am ((grin))

Have you seen any bears over there?
