We've been blessed with many humming bird visitors this summer. I'm impressed with how bold they are towards each other not to mention humans.
When I sit on the porch to watch them some fly within arm's reach. This one tollerated me getting closer and closer to the feeder until I could get the shot.

Crimpy, This is the story that goes with the -chip collector.
....
A seagull in Scotland has developed the habit of stealing chips from a neighborhood shop.
The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.
Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.
The seagull's shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen , Scotland , and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips.
Customers have begun paying for the seagull's stolen bags of chips because they think it's so funny.

I totally adore that gull video!
And true about the bluebird - I can almost hear him saying "I'm gonna kick your ass!!!"
edit: Hey - I said ass.

I am glad this thread resurfaced. I have some mystery shots. The first one is easy.
This one is a little harder.
The next two are hard as babies are always difficult. By the way these kids grew up to be big birds.
