Make a little birdhouse in your soul
The last couple of days have been great weather wise. The temperature has been perfect and the breeze has been soft and cool. As I sat watching the birds visit the seed post I thought I really need to buy a new feeder. So I did. Isn't it pretty? I love the color and the dragonfly design. At first the Tufted Titmice were having a hard time perching on the edge but they soon learned how to do it. I'm sure it won't be long before the Cardinals and Chickadees discover it.
One of the first visitors to the feeder. I think they like it.
Love the flair in the tail feathers. I think he's showing off.
Doesn't she look beautiful?
Love the air action.
A little wing action from the Titmouse.
Ready for takeoff.
Wow! Imagine that, they actually have a red belly.

Love your new bird feeder and it appears so do the birds.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite picture is of the cardinal though all the pictures are super.
Thank you so much. I think you're right about them loving the feeder. More birds at it this afternoon. I was shocked to see so many.
DeleteI always love your photos; your bird shots here are the best!!
ReplyDeleteYou have a way of capturing the delightful actions of our feathered friends!
I especially love the flaired tail feathers of the male cardinal. Great shots, Cindy!
Love your new bird feeder, too!!
I'm going to get out and about with my camera and try and get some shots of the birds in our yard. You've inspired me!!
Thank you for your amazing talent, my friend.
Hugs to you...and of course, scratches behind the ears for Annie and Charlie!
Love,
Jackie
As always Jackie thank you for your kind compliments. I love the flaired tail feathers too. The feeder was a good deal at my local Walmart or at least I think so. It was less than $14. Oh do get out and get some bird photos and share. Charlie and Annie loved the scratches and send you as usual slobbery kisses and hugs.
DeleteHugs,
Cindy
Oh - your birdies are so awesome! LOVE that Chickadee "hop" :) And your quote is awesome! i hope you don't mind if I use in the future :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Kerri for your kind comments and no I don't mind, use away. In fact use any of the quotes you find here that you like. Happy Weekend.
DeleteLovely colours. Lovely birds. Lovely pictures!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lucy! I really enjoyed reading your "creatures" post. I'm still wondering about the beach tracks.
DeleteYou are amazing. These are all fantastic shots. And the variety of birds! I still don't understand why the local squirrels don't get all the bird seed before the birds. We have rapacious squirrels.
ReplyDeleteThree years without going to the mall? That's not normal for a young American lady! Is it? :-))
Thank you Lowell. Bird calls from my phone or iPad. I'm trying to get an Eastern Bluebird but no luck yet. Did get a photo of one in 2011. As for the squirrels, I have seen one on the seed post but I think my girl Annie keeps them at bay. As for the mall, I'm not normal! Lol! Maybe one day soon I'll venture to one. Have a great weekend!!!!!!! :)
Deleteexcellent captures!! and your new feeder is beautiful....makes me want to go find a new one! i love meeting other bird enthusiasts....going right now to add you to my reader!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I saw some other feeders I'd like to have and may just go get one if them. Nice meeting you. Adding you to my favorites list. :)
DeleteI LOVE your new feeder! Wish it were mine. ;) And I like your photos and quote too.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I paid less than $14 for it at Walmart. It was one of those things you see and don't hesitate to buy. I'm sure there was a better choice but I liked this one.
DeleteCindy, I love your new feeder. The Dragonflies are pretty and I like the color. Wonderful collection of birds and photos. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I like the dragonflies too. I think that's what made it so appealing to me. Have a wonderful weekend.
DeleteCindy you captured some awesome shots here. I love them all- also the design and color of your new feeder.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pam. I think they have enchanted me. I can't believe how physically close I can sit to them. They're all around me going from feeder to post to trees and don't seem to care I'm right there. Have a great weekend.
DeleteI do like the Chickadee hop! I think its could catch on a feeder dance stations around the world!
ReplyDeleteThe feeders look great.

Thank you and I think you're right about the Chickadee hop. I wanted to participate in your WBW but totally forgot. Maybe next time.
