A Little Friday Dialogue

~American Goldfinch~

"Hey, Tweetie!  Do you think that woman with the camera will ever move us into first place?  You know, she's always saying that Bluebirds are her favorite bird."

~Female Goldfinch~

"Don't talk with your mouth full!  I heard her say just the other day that we were probably in second place.  I think we should at least be tied for first because we sit still longer for her to get a shot.  Oh, well.  As long as she keeps this feeder filled, I won't complain.  So, hurry up and let's finish eating and go sky-tripping." 

Have a wonderful weekend!
Until next time...

  4. Cheryl- Those are some of the most amazing bird pictures I have ever seen. I don't know what type of camera you have but it takes a pro to use any kind of camera to get shots like that! Amazing. Who needs Twitter when you have Tweeters like that? xo Diana

  5. How cute !
    I am not surprised at the captions that you came up with. It does seem like they are having an actual conversation. It is really nice of you that you not only give them bird seeds you are actually sharing their beauty with all of us. Thanks:)

  21. Sweet conversation with the goldfinches. I love them. They would be # 1 as we don't get bluebirds and chickadees would be # 2. Enjoy the weekend. Pam
