On a recent walk up by our water tower, we had a red-tailed hawk circling us, and sort of tagging along with us on our walk. Here he is:
Hey, what's that on the wire out in front of him?
Excuse me?
OK, maybe joking with a large, predatory bird isn't a great idea. Moving right along...
On Ammy's birthday, we had birds following us on our walk, too. This time, it was dear little bluebirds!
Isn't this little guy sweet? He was posing for Mom!
Me? I liked this next guy.

Here are Mr. and Mrs. Bluebird hanging out together:
Here's another female:
She's lovely, isn't she? Having a serene moment, as I hope all of you are!
This bird found some cool balls to play with:
Perhaps he's a ... yes, I'll say it, Am ... a LabraBird! Ha roo roo roo!
OK, enough of that. Here's a collage of some of the other shots Mom took:

We love seeing all the birds around us as we take our walks; they make Mom smile and wash away her worries. We hope you enjoyed them, too.
Thanks for joining us for Serene Scenery Sunday!

What GORGEOUS photos. That blue sky is absolutely divine!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bird pictures Stormy! It's nice that they follow along on your walks with you. They are a lot prettier to look at and much more serene than the deers that are on the walks with me.

ReplyDeleteHolly
They are lovely.. Mum says she knows just what you mean about the birds making you feel serene.. Just love these pictures.. Beautiful... Hugs GJ xx
ReplyDeleteI think you're right that the first bird was giving a speech with the teleprompter. That bluebird with all the balls reminds me of Scampi and his tennis ball collection!
ReplyDeleteKat
Good pictures Stormy!!! I love the birds and especially the blue birds. Don't mess with the Hawk! You never know what they just might do! You guys really have really pretty birds. All we see this time of the year are blackbirds and pigeons. Thanks for the tour with the birds..it is very serene!!! Lots of love, Debbie and Hollydog

ReplyDeleteOh - thanks for sharing those! MY human had never seen a bluebird in "real life" - always just in cartoons! - so it was really nice to see your photos and see that there really IS a BLUE bird!! ;-)

Honey the Great Dane
What gorgeous pictures! We don't see that many bluebirdies here and mom says she sure wishes we did!
ReplyDeleteLove ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
That Red tailed hawk with the telpromter must be a Democrat running for President, if he was a Republican he'd just write on his talons. Our GOM likes this bluebird picture best of all:
