I cannot identify the birds so I’ll leave the naming for now. These birds are common in my backyard. They like to gather around a walnut tree because there’s a sprinkler under the tree where the water collects.
I have discovered that photographing birds needs a lot of patience and a camera with a good telephoto lens to catch all the detail! Having said the bit about the camera lens, I am happy that my bridge camera is good enough to photograph birds, well birds that are not too far away, that is.
I hope to photograph more birds in the future and hopefully by then I will be able to identify the birds. There’s a book at Amazon about backyard birds of California. I should get that.
