Backyard Birds

coming in for a landing

If you've been reading my blog for awhile, you'll know I love birds...
For the longest time we've had these painted birdhouses teetering on the edge of the deck railing.
One day I noticed that some birds were filling up the insides with leaves and sticks and things. So we nailed a block of wood to the side as a quick remedy to the howling winds and storms since they kept falling off~ (which is why the scrap block of wood still has a SKU on it and is not very pretty ;)
Sometimes this little bird flies by while we sit outside.
Today as I was outside taking photos of my new 'tea bag', I noticed that the little bird kept trying to go back into the house. Finally after much patience, I was able to snap a few photos.
If you look carefully you'll see (S)he(?) has a worm.

look, she has a worm!

she goes up under the roof instead of in the front 'door'


out she comes


one last check before leaving

What's really funny is that the pouch I was photographing while all of this was happening, has a bird with a worm in it's beak!see?

P.S-does anyone know what kind of bird she is?

These are beautiful shots! What a coincidence that the bird's happenings match your cute new bag!
Lovely to capture such lovely instances.

If you would like to order some buttons I would be happy to custom-make some
for you. Because the toadstools seemed to be the most popular I will include
a free toadstool button or toadstool sewing pin (you can choose) with every
order placed until the 15th of June 2011.

Wishing you a great day and hope to "see" you again on my blog sometime!
Love
