Birds of a Feather

The Osprey seem to be doing well, with chicks in each nest. Here is only 1 bird.


Note the high wire act, and Ontario Hydro One.

If a bird were to be fried, would it become a TV dinner?


Are these cow birds?


Groan - something to mourn/moan about?


(A Sunday cross-word puzzle clue for T Elliott S, perhaps?)

A little bird told me so  -

CW - CBC

Saturday is "Our" day for this year's Christmas Bird Count or CBC. And yesterday I saw some birds in the
count week or CW - so there!




5 Trumpeter Swans

One of the adults at least has been banded - the yellow wing tag.  And the 5 are not afraid of being very close to the "hand of man". So here is a link to other birds who can live with us

Tudhope Park on a late Tuesday Afternoon

I just felt like getting out - a beautiful day.

This is not snow, "Schnee von Gestern"!
Christa, ich denke, die sind Volkers Freundinen!

What was this wise old bird watching?
Then I saw this plover, probably a killdear:



Then I saw what I expected:

But also unexpected, but prepared/hopeful:

And the not so expected - 10+ cm across!
Also.
And an Osprey' nest:
With an Ospry!




Wise old bird?

All within 600m, probably a walk of under 1.5km
Beautiful day - wob
