Baby bird UPDATE!
This afternoon in the courtyard, little robin baby Seymour (Niki named him) was hopping around (didn't see Albert the house sparrow--again, Niki named him too), and I was wondering if he might have been abandoned. Lo and behold, Mama Robin Helen (again, Niki's work) swooped in with a mouthful of earthwormy goodness! How I wish I could've gotten a photo or even video on my phonecam, but it all happened so fast!

Look at that cute birdy!
Thanks for stopping by my neglected geography blog!
I am straight, but I think all kinds of people love dancing, so that is why I included all kinds of dance couples. Plus the Tango is all about love and lust and all kinds of people like those things too!
Oh and I love the bird names! My husband has a boa constrictor named Clarence. I won't introduce him to your bird friends though!
Oh my- too cute!!
What I like best is the speckles on baby robins.
Still squealing over the cuteness.
My verification word? whirp.
Sounds like something a bird would say!
'Tis the season!!!!
Nice work, dg. Around here the barn swallows are nesting, but the babies don't seem to leave until they are flight ready.
Missy--I like your blog; I'll have to comment more and lurk less! Thanks for the cool inclusive photos! And yeah--Clarence and the birds really shouldn't meet....
Fran--aren't they? I love baby birds.
KGMom--me too--light and speckley. The first time I saw a robin baby, I didn't know what it was! I thought it was a thrush, thanks to those speckles.
DCup--*whirp!*
Rabbits' guy--indeed, and a fine season it is!
Matty Boy--I bet swallow babies are really cute! I brought my camera today so I could try to get better pics of the babies.
That's a cute guy!! Had fun with the names...
I have to confess we name our visitors too... well, some of them, you know, the 'regulars' ;)
