My wildlife friends can set me straight if I miss identify the birds. The first one is a White-crowned Sparrow, a winter visitor to our parts. He is much like the White-Throated Sparrow but lacks the yellow above and in front of the eye. I believe the second bird to be a Dark-eyed Junco. These photos were actually shot from the warm comfort of my front room with the lens up against the window. In the last two week I have also watch a male and female cardinal, doves and many other different sparrows enjoy the meal along with a wood pecker (I don't know witch kind) eating at our back yard feeders.

Oh I LOVE the bird shots! The first one is definitely a white crowned sparrow....I have been seeing these a LOT lately. I'm not sure what the second one is...but they are both cuties!
I agree with your identification. It sounds like you have a good plan for keeping your little friends safe from the hawks.
So far the hawks haven't caused me a problem but then I too have quite a bit of evergreen cover nearby.
Like these both. Nice shots to be from inside the house.

Great job on your backyard birdies. Tack sharp! Blue Skies.
Adorable. Beautiful photos!
Great shots. I've been scanning your blog and realize I've got some catching up to do. Man, I've missed some great shots like the one of the bear crossing the road. I'm going to go catch up now. :-)
