Birds on a wire

"There she is again with that camera in hand."

"I'll just try to ignore her."

"You're still there?  What's a Goldfinch gotta do
to have some privacy around here?"


You may have guessed that I love watching and
snapping my little feathered friends!    
I have a few shots of birds that I'm not positive
 just what they are and will be showing 
them another time.  I'm hoping some of my
fellow bird-lovers can help me identify them.
A lot of my shots are taken of the birds 
on the utility wires or cable wire,
  thus the title "Birds on a wire".

Until next time...

    They don't seem to mind posing for you either.

    Do you have birdfeeders out for them?

  7. Have you thought of self-publishing a book called Birds on a Wire? Add your own words on what they're thinking like today?
