So I had some interesting visitors at my bird feeders for Thanksgiving Dinner today.
I think this is a gorgeous male red winged blackbird.

The BC redwinged blackbird is is somewhat different from the birds I photographed in Ontario, that at first I didn’t recognize it. This bird has a yellow tuft and the red isn’t as prominent, so that is why I am not certain (Comments please if I need a correction)
This female does look like the red-winged blackbirds in my bird books.
The stellar jays that live in the cedar trees around my house are regular visitors.

And there were visitors who were also my guests for an earlier dinner.
