SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRD FEEDER - A POETIC WEEKEND FOR OUR FEATHERED FRIENDS





The wren truly sings beautifully!


The Downy Woodpecker had another task to do, which is how it goes on another Saturday Morning at the Birdfeeder. 

May your days be full of warmth, sunshine and sweet bird song.

"No poetry from me. I am a small bird but my voice is mighty. I can sing sweetly for you."

"Thanks a Latte and have a great weekend! Yes I know but she made me say it."

"A groaner alert would have been nice."

  2. I especially love the poetic quotes that each bird has! And the photos are so sweet, my favorite being the little Wren singing his heart out.

  11. Oh how nice :-)
    I put out an extra portion of nuts today because it snowed all night, and that's why some woodland birds are coming to the feeder.
    Have a lovely weekend!
    Hugs from Viola

  17. hahaha...i always love these. those blue jays are alway noisy. what i love about cardinals is both the males and females are so beautiful!!

  18. I'm so glad you think so Debbie and yes, they are but I do love them, and the same with the cardinals. The female has more muted colors but none the less I think she gives her mate a run for his money, so to speak :)
