SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRD FEEDER - WISDOM IN KINDNESS

 



Mr. Woodpecker has a chance to think whether he wants to lose his birdmanity, and finally...





“What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?” 











Jean-Jacques Rousseau (28 June 1712 – 2 July 1778) was a Genevan philosopher, writer, and composer. His political philosophy influenced the progress of The Age of Enlightenment throughout Europe, as well as aspects of The French Revolution and the development of modern political, economic, and educational thought.



Earth Day is an annual event on April 22 to demonstrate support for environmental protection.  First held on April 22, 1970, it now includes a wide range of events coordinated globally by earthday.org (formerly Earth Day Network), including 1 billion people in more than 193 countries. The official theme for 2023 is Invest In Our Planet.

  13. It is interesting to watch birds at the feeder. Some birds tolerate each other while others are bully birds and scare the others off so they can have the feeder all to themselves.

  16. I'm on the mourning dove's side hehehe. It's a bird of peace, and lately, I've been hearing one cooooo outside my window throughout the day. I love his soft and gentle coooo. They are such precious birds.
