They sure are striking birds. I wish I could see them more.

They're very skittish. I took these from inside a screened porch, sitting dead still. I was about 20 feet away. As soon as I moved my arm, the bird took off.

Nice shots. There is a very soft feel to these pictures. Was that because of the mesh? I kind of like it. You are lucky to have birds like these in your yard!
