Lunch Time

After seeing a Bluebird

fly in the nest a few times

as we drove out of our driveway,

I decided to stand like a statue

and see if I could get a closer picture.

 

 

 

Unfortunately, he saw me.

 

 

He continued to fly around,

but always came back with that

poor worm dangling from his mouth.

 

 

I think he was getting a little impatient,

 

but kept flying closer to the birdhouse.

 

Finally he flew down.

 

 

 

 

And lunch was served!

 

 

 



Getting Ready for Mother's Day

Over the last several years,

there have only been a couple of times

that I have seen Bluebirds in my yard.

 

 

The weekend before Easter,

I did see a couple of them hard at work

preparing a nest.

 



Getting those twigs to fit can be really frustrating!

Maybe going in backwards

will do the trick!

 

Much to my disappointment

after that Saturday I did not see them around.

 

But this last week,

this beautiful guy has been sitting

on a branch close to our feeders.

He always seems to sit on the same branch.

 



                          And the Good News is

"I have seen a bluebird go into the nest."

Maybe it will be a "Happy Mother's Day!"

 

 



 

Wishing you all a "Very Blessed Easter."

American Tree Sparrow

This is a bird that winter's here in Indiana.

 

 

For some reason, I don't see many Sparrows,

but I think this one is especially beautiful.

 

 

 

 

 

I think I was getting "the look!"

 

 

Or did that mean "the food is almost gone?"

 

Have a "Blessed Day!"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Is This a Sign of Spring??

The snow is finally melting,

The sun is out, and so is someone else!

 

This youngster must have decided

it was time to end his "long winter's nap"

and check out his beautiful world!

 

Or was he just checking for food?

 

 

 

"What makes you think

I was eating your bird food?"

 

 

This is kind of a "balancing act."

 

 

"I think she wants me to LEAVE."

 

 

"Sure hope I can find my mother."
