Birds of a Feather
by sonomasojourn
I might have already mentioned this, but the birds outside our front window are amazing as they chow down on apples still hanging onto the bare branches. Today a big fat mourning dove settled into the curve of one of the branches … he lorded above all and I saw no other birds while he held court there. But here are a few photos of some of our other visitors. I wish Aunt Esther were here to tell me everything there is to know about these beautiful creatures:
This must be a ‘he’ because of the colors … I need to find my “Birds of Sonoma” book to identify for sure!
“Peck, peck, peck!” Hmmm…I’m thinking that these apples have actually turned to cider…maybe even HARD cider!
Look at this beautiful creature…
Taking a break from apple sauce…

wonderful pics….but what else could I expect from a fabulous photographer? Keep the beauty coming!!
Thanks, Mare — these were shot through the window with my little camera with mighty zoom! Image what they could look like with proper techniques! :)
