Birds in Flight part one

 I like the photos of birds with their wings extended so here are some I've accumulated over the past few months:

                                                       Lesser Goldfinch

                                                          

                                                 With a couple of female House finches

                                                            Red-shafted Flicker

                                               He came in a little low for this landing

                                                   A Flicker and a male House finch

House finches (mostly)
