These are wonderful. Love them all. It is hard to realize just how beautiful the Bunting is until you see it in person. The Oriole is still on my to see list. last year I fortunate enough to see a Scarlet Tanager. What a beauty they are. I am just south of where the Grossbeaks range ends so I don't see them. When I lived in central NY we would see flocks of thousands in the yard. Quite a sight.

Your pictures has brought back wonderful memories. Thank you.
peace

EDIT: Thank you to everyone who keeps their cats inside. My little boy is a very spoilrd indoor cat.

Also, where ever you live, even one window can become an enjoyable view. Starlings were mentioned and I just want to say even though they are an imported species and can be rather abundent, they are a wonderful bird to watch. Look close and they have beautiful feathering and their song, if you take time to really listen is enchanting. IMHO

If you have limited viewing or variety of birds, even the lowly starling can be good company.
