Tell that to the toxic thumb, it needs all the encouragement it can get!
And so it goes on a Saturday morning at the bird feeder.
Have a great weekend everyone, and thanks for stopping by.

Thank you so for taking the time to leave a comment. I enjoy reading them very much and always try to return a visit. As I do monitor comments it may take a while for them to appear, even quite late depending on what is going on and how much time I am able to spend on the computer.
I appreciate all who look at my blog, but I won't be publishing any businesses. If you are only able to publish anonymously, would you sign your name please, and leave an addy so I can return your visit where possible? Thank you!
Great sweet little chipmunk photos! And pretty detail on the Cardinal, too! What is the black bird taking a bath? But you know the little Wren is always my favorite!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed Ginny :) the black bird is a crow. Hard to tell with his feathers all wet. The wren is a sweet little bird for sure, and always happy when the cardinals call, and even the chipmunks. They will all be scarce until the colder months now though, but fortunately I have a lot of bird feeder photos to help me through the non-feeding months.
Deletethis is delightful. I feel for you too - there are some plants for which my green fingers are decidedly black.
ReplyDeleteA kindred spirit! Thanks for the commiserations Sue :)
DeleteDenise, you are so creative with the conversations...:-)) Have a fabulous weekend!
ReplyDeleteLovely compliment, thank you Angie :) You have a fabulous weekend also!
DeleteJust gorgeous Denise. Well done.
ReplyDeleteHappy you think so Margaret, thank you so much! :)
DeleteThey talk like generation Z
ReplyDeleteI like your description of them roentare :)
DeleteChipmunks are so pretty and lovely to watch, I'm sure. Have a good weekend, Denise.
ReplyDeleteVery much so Jan! You have a good weekend also :)
DeleteBut of course chipmunks would dream of full feeders :) Hope big bunny gets out of the bunny hospital soon and is feeling hippity hoppity again.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the truth Ann? :) If he does, Big Bunny, I will be hippity hoppitying right along with him, lol!
Deleteyou certainly have the most entertaining bird feeder I have ever seen, not JUST birds but all critters are welcome, and some are not welcome but come anyway...
ReplyDeleteHappy you think so Sandra :) Yes, truth be told, all critters are welcome, but maybe I would be more wary of Mr. Bear.
DeleteCamera lady is so kind to all her critters. Darling photos and entertaining musings at the bird feeder. Sending best wishes to Big Bunny on a complete recovery. The welcoming rains will surely make everything better in the garden!
ReplyDeleteThank you Martha Ellen, so happy you enjoyed this week's conversation :) I will send your best wishes to Big Bunny. I am sure he will be delighted ;) as for the rains, yes indeed, and it seemed to cool the weather a few degrees for a little while at least. 100 degrees F. on Tuesday my dear friend, so stay cool!
DeleteCute images and captions. A fun post! Take care, have a happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you Eileen, so happy you enjoyed them :) Weekend is almost over now as I am late answering, but I hope yours was a happy one too.
DeleteAfter 2" of rain yesterday...today was they day to empty out any remaining bird seed from the feeders...wash the trays and add new seed. DONE, also put out no melt suet.
ReplyDeleteThe bird baths are full of rain water so I did n't need to fill them. Will refill them after supper
Hugs and healing thoughts to Big Bunny
Cecilia
Wonderful and thank you for your hugs and healing thoughts for Big Bunny. We are both sending hugs to you :)
DeleteYou are covering different issues with Saturday morning at the bird feeder. The author's health is referred to. Winter? Yes, winter is coming and animals are already preparing for it.
ReplyDeleteVery true, I am trying to add a little bit of every-day life into these conversations, a fun way to look back and remember. Animals and birds are a good weathervane for incoming weather, that's for sure :)
DeleteHow lovely post!
ReplyDeleteThank you Anne, much appreciated :)
DeleteShe keeps trying. I love that. I hope Big Bunny is home soon.
ReplyDeleteYes, she is always trying :) and thank you, I'm looking forward to seeing him out there again, hopefully with ear intact.
DeleteYou have so many wonderful birds visiting you at the bird feeder each and every day, Denise. We often get the Eurasian Collared Doves, and one is coooing in the distance right now. They are precious. And then there are the Steller's Jay and the Robin, and the funny California Quail.
ReplyDeleteHave a splendid weekend, Denise.

Sounds like you have some lovely birds there yourself Sheri. I remember seeing California Quail one time when in California. Darling and funny as you say. Steller's Jay are always a treat to see but I don't get to do that unless we travel out west. Eurasian Collared Doves I have seen also but only on our travels. Our weekend is almost over but it was a lovely one, thank you so much. I hope yours was also.
DeleteI saw this in my newsreader and I got all excited. I like your critter tails!
ReplyDeleteYou made my day Jenn, so happy you enjoy these, and thank you for telling me :)
DeleteI love this!!!! Thanks for the smiles, my friend.
ReplyDeleteI am very happy they brought you a smile Billie Jo, thanks so much for letting me know my friend :)
DeleteThat is awesome, love Saturday mornings!
ReplyDeleteAh thank you, I am so glad you do :)
DeleteVery nice post,
ReplyDeleteeven about the weather they are discussing!!
Have a beautiful and creative week Denise!
Thank you Katerina, and I wish you the same my friend :)
DeleteCute. We got a little rain yesterday, but we are still in a severe drought.
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda :) I hope you get some more rain. Looks like we are getting some in a day or so. I am keeping fingers crossed for all of us.
DeleteLovely post Denise, thank you.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Much appreciated Jan, thank you so much and all the best to you too :)
