Bedraggled beauty -







Eastern bluebirds

Northern cardinal

House finch


Pine Warbler

Carolina wren


I don't want to bore you with another litany of facts about my garden birds, 
other than their names. However, I do want to share a few more photos
 taken this week on the very wet days. Many birds flocked to the front
 porch to shelter from the cold, often heavy rain. . . . . . and to enjoy some
 seeds and crumbs we scattered in dry spots away from the dripping wet
 feeders out in the garden. 

Good weekend wishes ~ stay safe ~ be well.

  6. I am glad they had the opportunity to get out of the rain at least for a bit - I always wonder about and feel sorry for birds and other animals out there when the weather is like that.

  7. Dear Mary,
    Have never seen a sadder bunch of little birds. Probably didn't take long for them to get back to their shiny selfs.

  10. So pretty...we have a lot of house finches here, too. I always loved seeing the red poking out from underneath their otherwise plain brown feathers. Hope you're having a good weekend. It's bitter cold here - was -11 this morning.

    It was a good weekend and birds were a part of it.

  12. I am never bored reading or looking at your photos. I love all of these bird photos but I am partial to the cardinal.
