I love how birds are so unique in different places in the world, just as trees are, and yet so universal at the same time. <BR/><BR/>Hope the visit blesses both of you... and leaves your wood work still shining strong : )wendybirdehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01937771656490357049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10597769.post-1158072123149909162006-09-13T00:42:00.000+10:002006-09-13T00:42:00.000+10:00Talk about birds !!!

We're just a little too cold to see those around here. when we have exotics -like conures or 'keets', they are escapees who have banded together to find food and trouble. ;-DLindaDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07813692333024658399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10597769.post-1158063011774058302006-09-12T22:10:00.000+10:002006-09-12T22:10:00.000+10:00That Jellyhead is a scream, isn't she?

I love the way they lift their comb and look so inquiringly at you. Perhaps they <I>are</I> asking for a cracker :)<BR/>We've hardly seen our dear little hummingbirds at the feeders this summer. They're in the gardens though. I guess they haven't needed to use the feeders much. We miss seeing them up close.Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10597769.post-1158058211203326652006-09-12T20:50:00.000+10:002006-09-12T20:50:00.000+10:00'Ello cocky!
