I have to post once more about the Northern Mockingbirds and praise them for being so brave and for protecting the bird community that lives within my backyard. Between last week and this week I’ve seen them chase away a Cooper’s Hawk that is about three times larger that the Mockingbird. Let me tell you that these really meant business.
I’m so proud of the “guardians” that’s what I call them!

I believe that seasonings are essential for any kind of good meals. In the same belief I’m making an analogy for: A bit of humor is good for any kind of subject which in this case is birds.
“A good chuckle is healthy. It helps you break the monotony of a serious life”

“This post is just a small pause that I take to dedicate a few words to my blog’s followers. You have no idea the satisfaction I get when I get a comment or questions about birds or even more she a reader tells me that felt inspired to do more about birds whether in photography, feeding birds, installing bird houses, counting and naming bird species, reading more about birds habitat, migrations or their habits in general.
Those friends that write to me are very dear to me because I also get motivated to write and continue blogging, who knows maybe some day it might help some student or youngster become an Ornithologist or Bird Photographer.
Bottom line is, I thank you very much for your patience and your time when you visit my blog, of course I’d love to get a few words from all of you, every comment a reader writes has something that will help create communication and dialog which lead to learning something new. Communication build bridges of friendship among people from different nationalities without any barriers or any kind of prejudice.”
Next are some photos of several birds you might be familiar with.
