A few photo's from my backyard today to start the May thread ...

Red-winged Blackbirds, two males and a female:

Mourning Doves and a Northern Cardinal, male (this photo was taken through the window):

And, I glanced out the window around 5 O'clock this evening and saw a Red-shouldered Hawk perched in the Cypress tree. Apparently it wasn't very hungry because there were a couple of other birds in the same tree. I grabbed my camera and got a couple of pic's through the window before a Mockingbird began dive bombing the hawk and chased it off.
