Spring is delightful,
It full of growth, new smells, the emerging from the long winter’s sleep
But Summer! Oh! My! Summer!
The songbirds start their day
And mine long before the grey light in the sky turns bright
The Fragrance in the air is spiked with all sorts of scents
Sometimes with a hot wind to carry things before it
The days are long
The Twilight longer
Life is good.
Which reminds me, does anyone know what bird this is?
Or this bird?Β Are they one in the same?
From my heart to your world,
Linda
Iβm sorry I canβt help you identify the birds, but I did enjoy both your words and your pictures.

Morning ~ Still admire your bird photos! Of course with your beautiful yard & flowers and wide open spaces, you’ve got the perfect bird area!
Looks like you might have a Say’s Phoebe there. Check out allaboutbirds.org

They could be Says Phoebes. Not as familiar with western birds as eastern alas. There is a Facebook group, What’s this bird, which is open to anyone with an interest in birds at all, where you can post your photos. An expert or even several will ID it for you. They are very nice. I use them all the time. They could tell you for sure in just a couple of minutes. I will see if I can send you an invitation to join.

Sometimes I think it’s rather boring for the blog, but it is my life and I really enjoy each and everything. I’m glad you love coming along on the ride.

Reminds me of my childhood.
Blog what you love. Anything else is a waste of your valuable time. So many on social media say or do things just to get attention. There’s rarely depth or quality.
You keep being YOU. It will bring you what you need. πβ€

Charlee: “We really need Dada to set up a bird cam for us.”
Lulu: “You’ve got windows. Can’t you just watch birds from there?”
Chaplin: “Sure, we CAN. Sometimes. But they don’t congregate at the windows.”
Lulu: “Maybe that’s because you’re always there staring at them and chattering away like you want to catch them.”
Charlee: “Of course we want to catch them. We’re cats.”
