Female Bullock's Oriole
A recent visitor to the bird bath. The one with the red coloration is a male House Finch. He seems to get a little aggressive in #5 and #6 but the Oriole doesn't care. She's saying "Yeah, whatever. I'm a lot bigger than you."

Hawks and Squirrels
Yesterday an adult Cooper's Hawk was at the bird bath when a squirrel came scampering across the yard to get a drink. The hawk tried to scare it off by spreading its wings and hopping around a little bit, causing the squirrel to go to the smaller bird bath.
The squirrel is in the lower right corner
After the squirrel got its drink and left, the hawk decided to take a bath
On your mark... Get set...
GO!!!

Hawks and Doves
A few days ago an immature Cooper's Hawk was at the birdbath when a White-winged Dove attempted to chase it off. At first the hawk hunkered down in a defensive position but then it went on the offense and got a talon full of feathers as the dove flew away.
This morning a pair of Curve-billed Thrashers visited the birdbath. One of them stuck around long enough to take a bath.
