Out on A Limb

"Where is Mama? We are waiting."

I love this delightful photo of all the little birds lined up waiting for Mama to come home with dinner. I think they look worried, don't you? via

Gorgeous Owl

Forgive me for being so tardy with my morning post. I'm still running around in circles here at the cottage but it's good to be busy. I hope you are having a great last weekend in June. Can you believe the year is half over? Where did it go? This owl certainly has good taste in perching places, doesn't he? I love the wrought iron fence or gate. via

Newly Hatched Hummingbirds

I have hummingbirds here at the cottage but I've never been lucky enough to see a nest. How wonderful!!! via Good night, see you in the morning.

'Walk Like an Egyptian' Bird

He has it down pat even without hands, doesn't he? via We have blue skies and bright sun this morning. Yay! Just in time for a great Memorial Day weekend. Have a good one.

Bluebird Spotting Today at My Cottage

Any day that starts with a bluebird spotting is a good one in my book. This one was pretty far away and I'm thankful my Nikon with the big telephoto lens was near the window. 

Ducky Fireplace

I like the bird tiles surrounding this fireplace. My iPhone photo was taken on the fly at an open house yesterday. The original owners must have been birders. 

Baby Goose

This little gosling looks so cozy tucked under mother's wing. I'm getting ready to tuck myself between the sheets to enjoy some TV time on the flat screen in my bedroom. Goodnight all. See you in the morning. via

Awkward Baby Bird

This Bittern nestling is unusual looking to say the least. The wonderful photo by Alex Lavashkin appeared in Popular Photography 3/28/13. The mother made a beautifully woven nest for her babies, didn't she?
