The Mystery Birds

I've spotted these two near the house in the morning a couple of times before, but by the time I'd return to the spot with my camera, they'd have vanished. This time thankfully, they were right in the front yard.


That's one and here's the other...


This fellow was looking straight at the camera and refused to move from there. As I moved to circle to get a shot from the side, they both scooted off. The first guy however, did not fly off too far away...




Anybody knows their names?
