BIRD SONG

Happy Monday all!!!
 
Today started my second vacation, and since I'm ahead of the game of getting ready for my trip, and before company arrives tomorrow to whisk me away, I'm spending the day up at the lake to take a run, then do some kayaking.I had a lovely breakfast this morning while watching Bonnie, Clyde and company.....
 
Loved this shot of Jay flying away.......
 
I really need to stop walking around in Calvin's....!

  1. Lovely birds, and you're in quite a good mood for a Monday. I was almost going to ask, "Where is Mistress, and what have you done with her?"

  6. Wonderful shots!!!! Those close UPS are amazing. My favorite is the last and the one where you can see sun coming through the tree with the dove. I can tell they must be used to your presence.

    "what the hell? did he just flip me the bird?"

    "is that a suet stick in those shorts, or is he just glad to see me?"

  12. I love to sit and watch my birds in the morning before going to work, but I don't know I get such a variety. Those dove pictures are quite nice.

  13. As pretty as they are, I cut off my job description as a bird care giver, whist you'll be away.

  14. You capture here a wonderful example of how our human minds and hearts (and some work) can impact our little plots of land, or just out our windows, to the benefit of that amazing world of nature that we are part of and so often forget!

  15. I love this piece! It was a lovely way to start my morning – and a beautiful reminder to stop, look, and appreciate all the nature and life in my own backyard (as well as in yours). I love that you are able to take such beautiful photos while also being mindful to protect the birds
