Who's Nesting in our Yard? Part 2

 Chipping Sparrows

 Mourning Doves
 American Goldfinches
And Loggerhead Shrikes

Sorry, I don't have juvenile photos for all of these, but I feel we can safely assume they are nesting here when they are around at the end of July. I saw three Loggerhead Shrikes together today, and another right afterwards that I don't think was part of the first group, so can say they had a successful nesting season.  One of the birds hovered in the air for several seconds. I watched it, then wished I could have caught it on video.
