They are one of the prettiest birds that come to our feeders.

It is fun to see them again, because they are not here over winter. On this day I saw two at the same time.

This one perched on the light post while the other ate suet at the log feeder.

I have no idea if this is a pair or both female or both male, because their plumage is almost identical.

I love bird-watching in May because some birds recently arrived for a summer stay in our woodlot, while others are just moving through as they head farther south.
