Look Outside my Window!

Today’s is my second post of “Look Outside my Window! I’d like to thank you very much for your visit of the first post, also for your kind comments. I hope that you will enjoy this post too!

Ooooooh! What else can you say, when you see a couple of lovely birds such as these Northern Cardinals, sharing a meal? You just have to realize how fortunate you’ve been to witness that scene, even more yet, you shot a photo of it! Good thing that I have you here with me and we all share this moment! Very sweet indeed!

What do you do if you are male, good looking, young but do not have a mate? This handsome American Goldfinch was just waiting, a bit lonely. He’s wearing his best (Breeding) plumage, bright and shiny, unfortunately he hasn’t found a beautiful female to be his couple yet. He’d swoon her with his song and loving attentions. Let’s hope that he finds her soon, hang in there my friend!

He showed to the backyard in company of some peers, they fed themselves well and caused a bit ruckus as usual but soon after he was somehow separated from them. Now this Common Grackle sits at the very top of a tree and calls for his fellow friends. He’s used to go everywhere with his friends and misses them very much when they aren’t around. He knows that he feels safer being part of a group because they help each other all the time.

It is always a special moment for me to see two birds sharing a meal, or parents feeding their young, thanks for this beautiful photo!

Beautiful photo. I wonder, how many hour of observation would take it to produce photos like these …

  I’m sure that by now he has a beautiful mate and it’s probably honeymooning as we write! Thanks Jane! 🙂
