Father Son Outing

I was in the kitchen cleaning up from dinner and I just happened to look out the window. It isn't unusual that I would see a Red-Bellied eating on the oranges that I put out. But look who he brought with him tonight!! Isn't he adorable. He's such a good Daddy. I wish the photos would have turned out better. Hopefully I'll have other chances to photograph them.

Jessica: It's been awhile and I apologize. Seeing the pics of the baby robins waiting for their meal reminds me of the other day when I was watching an adult robin on my front walk, getting food for their young.

Thanks for checking out my new poetry blog. I hope you enjoy.

how do you attach the oranges to the tree trunks? I would have never thourght of that.

What a precious moment for you to capture! Oranges nailed to a tree....you're such a good Mama!

I love it!

Pigeon... I just hammered a nail into the tree and stuck the orange on the nail. Doesn't get any simpler than that. I orginally put the oranges out for the Orioles but it is the Red-bellies that love the oranges. They peak those oranges down to the rind every day.

Hi Jessica--
Your blogs are great! I found you at Shelley's, Building a Log Cabin.
First of all, your Seadra and Zoe are adorable! I love dogs! (sister-in law has a Boston)
My hummingbirds are not as active here in KY as in past years. So we are kind of sad. That's pretty much the extent of our bird watching.
