Tennessee Birding II

This is part two of my Tennessee birding series. Here's some shots from another morning walk along the driveway to our cabin. This was a longer walk than the first.

#1
These two robins were hanging out on the tree top.

#2
I have not a clue what this little guy is.

But, this might be another shot of it. It looks like it could be another Nashville Warbler?

This next one perched for quite a while and didn't seem to mind me taking photos of it. I'm pretty confident that it's a Eastern Kingbird.

Here's another shot of it that shows the white-tips on the tail feathers better:

#4
This is either a Carolina Chickadee or a Black-capped Chickadee. The photo isn't good enough to distinguish very well, so it could be either, but due to being further south, I'm going to go with Carolina Chickadee.

Northern Flicker

#6
This guy stuck around for a while, but just wouldn't turn around for me! I managed to get a photo as he turned his head, though, revealing his red eyes.

Eastern Towhee

Downy Woodpecker
#8
This is a beautiful blue bird!


Indigo Bunting
#9
The classic hummingbird silhouette.

And now with some color:
