One bird!
Two birds!
Red bird!
Blue bird!
How’s that to whet your appetite?
Okay, now I’m going to ask my birding friend Kim to mouse over each one and make sure I have them labeled correctly. And then, there are about two more good birding posts to come and a couple of birds I need her to identify positively for us!
Can’t wait to share the rest of the pics with you!
I am your birding

My sister’s visits don’t come often enough to meet my need for close female companionship, but we take what we can get and cram every minute with as much life as we possibly can. This visit was no different. And in some ways, it was more special than past visits–mainly because we didn’t work on…
Man, that dance floor was hopping to the resonating beat of Cody Ledet and his Zydeco band. Even though it was chilly outside, after about an hour of dancing, the huge sliding doors were opened to cool the dancers off. Here’s Corey’s cousin, Greg Portier, playing the scrub board . . . while he played…
He’s the last of five. He’s the last pumpkin on the vine. He’s the baby. He’s been a blessing (and a challenge) for 13 years. I wonder if he knows that he’s already lived more life and seen more things than some folks experience in a lifetime? Maybe a few photos will help answer…
A zombie was seen roaming the streets in a local subdivision, frightening everyone in his path. Witnesses say he was doing something akin to the “Thriller Dance”. When asked what he was doing, he groaned something about a soldier and a gun. This image was captured on hidden camera . . . It appears the…
because I’m beautiful because I love to fish! Sometimes, people ask me to take their boats for a spin for them when they’ve been sitting up too long. Such was the case last Thursday, and what a gorgeous day it was to make a late afternoon trip to my favorite lake. My secret spots were…
If you remember, in February, I posted photos of tall leafy blades of green that would soon turn into something gorgeous. It has happened, and here they are. Spring happens very quickly down the bayou. We go from erratic spells of warm dotted with cold, and bare trees to everything in full bloom in about…
wow, what beautiful birds. Ive heard you talk about tangers, are they very big? That indobunting…does he stick around there or continue northward?
Ive seen some bluebirds already, getting ready for the hummers. Plz let me know when you spot them, Ill start making & hanging my nectar. Cant wait to see what you will post next.
The bluebird is beautiful. I never saw so many different birds than when we were in Belize. Our tour guide said that the birdwatchers were the most enthusiastic tourists he’d ever seen……except for me because I was taking NOTES as he talked!! HA. Have you ever had someone take notes on your tours? How lucky you are to live in such a beautiful natural area, but as you point out it requires wise stewardship.
I like your little rhyme!

Think we call those scarlet tanager. One zipped around Fourchon while I was visiting the young’un who has a camp at Du. They will be here around end of May.
PURTY BIRDIE!
SM….I live in Abita Springs, on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain, and we’ve had hummers for the past month or so.; ditto the blue birds. Several of the hummers are repeat customers from last year. They stop and “hum” right in my face when their feeder gets low.
Cuz…..as usual, amazing pictures!
