You might consider this cheating, 'cuz I don't live there anymore, but here are some pics from Kenya:

Superb Starling (rats with wings, yes, but they're preeetty

):

Ibis:

Wild Guinea Fowl (and a warthog):

And a bird I really don't know what it is but it has a really pretty song, I was told their name in Pokot language, but forgot

):

(ETA possibly a Rüppell's Long-tailed Starling???)

Love looking at these pictures from everyone

One of my favorites of this little hummmingbird. He was pretty tolerant of my presence

Thanks, the first 2 were taken Christmas day from our porch- i put dog food out for the jays and woodpeckers- had to try out my new camera!

The others were taken hiding in our car, while the birds came to eat at the feeders...LOL! that was a few years ago...

Piliated Woodpecker. He hangs out regularly, but hard to catch a photo of. He was way up in a tree, and my camera isn't that good ....

Here is a Blue Jay that visited us this last summer. He kept diving at me so I got some bird seed and managed to coax him into landing on my hand.

Here is an owl that came to visit a couple of nights ago. He kept hitting the livingroom window and we figured out that he was trying to get at our cockateels

He was even peering in the window

I like these next three because they tell a story. My SO didn't even realize they were passing a grasshopper when he took pictures of these mockingbirds.
