Peach Birds

There are few things in life better than fresh Colorado Peaches ... but various critters like 'em too as can be seen below. I also have a page about peach wasps, peach foxes and peach squirrels that are pretty aggressive around peach trees.

These pictures were taken with a Rebel XTi DSLR using a Canon 70-300DO lens ... so I was about 20-30 feet away zoomed in for these shots. If you move closer, the birds stop eating ... but they hold their ground and don't spook easily.
