One little bluebird sitting in a treePosted by Bookfool (Mississippi, United States) on 25 March 2009 in Animal & Insect. Okay, not all of the trees are budded out. But, most of them are.

Linerberry from Sumner, Christchurch, New ZealandOh so sweet!!! What a beauty:-) 25 Mar 2009 7:47am @Linerberry: Isn't he pretty? In flight, they take my breath away with that brilliant blue. Judy from Brooksville, Florida, United StatesI love it ... and he seems to have a happy face ... not the "Mad Bluebird" look. :D 25 Mar 2009 10:57am @Judy: Yes, I do believe this may be a sane bluebird. LOL Roman from Thunder Bay, CanadaThose type of images warm my heart and give me hope because I know the spring will eventually find her way here. Lovely !! cheers 25 Mar 2009 11:43am @Roman: I'm sure I'd get tired of winter, too, but it's hard for me to even fathom the quantity of snow and how long it lasts where you live. We didn't even see snowflakes, this year. I missed our one night of flurries! So depressing. I wish I could transport you here, although at the moment you'd just get rained upon. But, it's really pretty when the sun shines. Spring will arrive. Hang in there! MontereyJohn from Salinas, California, United StatesWelcome back Bookster! I'm liking the Sony I got, and when I see your images, I know I'm going to like it more as time goes on. I found a home for my old minolta Maxxum AF lenses which work just great on the Sony body. 25 Mar 2009 1:23pm @MontereyJohn: Thank you, Man from Monterey. I'm glad you're enjoying your Sony. Yep, those old Maxxum lenses fit perfectly. They've kept them standard from Minolta to KonicaMinolta and now Sony. That's why we've stuck with them. It saves moola if you can just update the body and keep using the same lenses. Lesley from Lincoln, United StatesWhat a sweet little bird! I've been seeing a lot of cardinals this week. And dozens and dozens of robins. Spring is here, in spite of the 30 degree temps. :) 25 Mar 2009 3:45pm @Lesley: So, you don't see cardinals and robins in winter? Ours never leave. Neither do the mockingbirds, but it's a lot noisier, now that spring has sprung. We don't call 30 degrees spring. That's depth of winter from our POV. ;) @grouser: Thank you, Grousie dear. Keep handing over the Kleenex. Everything is blooming. It's really pretty, but man . . . spring sucks if you've got allergies. Earnest from Oklahoma, United StatesSounds like the beginning of a poem. These guys never leave the territory around here and I often wonder how they are feeding in the winter time. 25 Mar 2009 6:35pm @Earnest: I thought that same thing, but then I realized there would need to be two little bluebirds sitting in a tree for them to be K-I-S-S-I-N-G. I don't think ours ever leave, either, although we do see them more when they're nesting in the spring. peter from new york, United Stateswonderful capture! pretty soon he'll be surrounded by flowers! 25 Mar 2009 7:45pm @peter: Actually, Peter, he was surrounded by flowers but that particular tree just hadn't budded out. I guess the pecans are a tad slower than everything else. Among the current bloomers: redbuds, pear trees, Japanese magnolias, azaleas, wisteria, dogwood and every blankety-blank weed in the world (all of which are magnetically drawn to my yard -- we've already had to mow). Blecch. Stupid spring. @jamesy: Thank you, Debbie. I adore the bluebirds. Lorraine from Gatineau, CanadaHe is so pretty, bet he has a lovely melody going on just for you Booky ;) 26 Mar 2009 4:10am |
