Hey, what about my breakfast!

This character reminds me early every morning to put out the bird food.

bunnits said...: He is such a beauty. There was a small drainage ditch near some fast food joints in one part of town where cattails, rushes, and other plants grew. It was a lush place for redwings and other species of birds. I used to really enjoy watching them while I sat in my car slurping my ice cream snacks. Now, in the name of progress, it has been paved and the birds are gone.; July 24, 2010 at 1:47 AM

Frank Baron said...: I've enjoyed regular visits from redwing blackbirds this summer too. Their call is a first sign of spring for me.; July 27, 2010 at 10:10 PM

Rusty said...: Grin. Hi Frank. Their call always reminds me of the sound of the spring on the old screen door at my grandfather's country place.; July 28, 2010 at 10:29 PM

Elizabeth Mahlou said...: What a character! He reminds me of the time that the hummingbird food ran out, and we had a line of 5-6 hummingbirds fluttering at the window, wondering where their food was!; July 30, 2010 at 1:41 AM
Rusty said...: Hi Lolly. They seem to be pretty well wide ranging. Check out online info places like birds, Enviroment Canada.; July 30, 2010 at 10:49 AM
Rusty said...: Hi Elizabeth. Now that must have been a sight! Thats one thing I hardly ever see around here - hummingbirds. The last time I set out a special feeder for them all we go was hornets.. I think I will try that again next year.; July 30, 2010 at 10:51 AM
