A family of birds has moved into the oak tree just outside my living room deck. There’s usually at least three or four of ’em hanging out on the branches, so of course, on the day I had my camera handy, only one bird showed up for the photo session.
Too cute! I love those pretty little house finches – they hang out in my neighborhood sometimes too – along with some yellow-colored finches. The one in your pic looks nice and round!
Awww! He looks so plump and happy! 🙂 The boys and I were dive-bombed this weekend by a swallow that’s made her nest on top of the garage door opener. I won’t let the Hubs remove it in case she has some eggs in there. It should keep us on our toes all summer as we go in and out of the garage!

These are definitely the cutest birds…the turkeys and the vultures, well, they’re not nearly as cute!

I do love these photos. The bird looks so pretty, and very much at peace!

They are really lovely birds! They sing throughout the day; it’s very peaceful and sweet.

It’s a red house finch! 🙂 They love nyger seed, fyi if you wanted to feed them.
Karen says
Thanks, Bonnie. I’ve been wondering what type of birds they are. I’ll try to take pictures of the whole family if I can.
And thanks for the tip about the seeds. 🙂 There’s a shop in my town that sells bird-related things so hopefully I can find those there!

Such a sweetie and I like the reddish feathers this bird has. My bird constantly “talks” to the outdoor birds.
