Name that red-throated bird! Posted by dou dou 17 There is a new bird stopping by every few days now. This little guy was kind enough to sit still for a few moments to let me a get a shot. What do you think he is? He had black and white wings and a beautiful red patch under his chin.

Next time he stops by I’ll see if he’ll sing for me
