Those Lovebirds

 

Seeing that peach-faced lovebird that I posted yesterday reminded me of all those birds that used to visit my yard when I lived in the house on the other side of town.  I went into the archives to look at some of those photos.  If you have followed my site for the past 12 years, you might remember how they used to flock to my yard because of the seed blocks I put out for them.  I found this photo in the archives of one of the lovebirds inviting a little sparrow to take a bite.

For those of you who haven't followed me that long, here is what it looked like back then.  I would get a big block of bird seed, and put it on a big rock in my back yard and these cute fellows would show up and feast on the seeds.  I miss seeing them all the time so I'm happy when I spot them around town in different locations.

Wow...so many lovebirds! They are so sweet. Right now I have a lot of birds at my feeders and they are so enjoyable to watch. I especially love the red-headed woodpeckers, cardinals, and bluebirds.

That is wonderful, Sharon. I love the one bird standing right up top of the seed block.
