I've seen so much destruction of bushland in our region this past year alone. Breaks my heart. <br /><br />Such cute pics of the bird at the fountain! I love to see birds at our birdbath in the back garden. <br /><br />Thanks for dropping by my blog today, Vee...I did reply but I was so happy to see a comment from you. I lost touch with a lot of bloggers after my Dad passed in 2015. It doesn't pay to stay away for too long. <br /><br />I hope you have a lovely week!

When they start to fly by the windows to demand food, it tickles me but, at the same time, worries me.<br /><br />I do like the fountain and the poor little moulting guy. I never thought about them having human traits.<br /><br /><a href="https://myworldthrumycameralens.blogspot.com/search/label/MCoW" rel="nofollow">My Corner of the World</a> betty-NZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03950300478215339641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8082891485735387579.post-78047761412843439702019-06-20T15:35:44.289-07:002019-06-20T15:35:44.289-07:00Interesting post...Never gave the subject much tho...Interesting post...Never gave the subject much thought....But I guess city birds do behave differently than country ones..They would have to, I think...Love your fountain..very sweet..A nice drinking fountain for the birdies..This N Thathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14660035693962636210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8082891485735387579.post-47623169067707857102019-06-20T15:15:33.136-07:002019-06-20T15:15:33.136-07:00Great photos of the wee chick at your fountain (an...Great photos of the wee chick at your fountain (and that's a great fountain too - assume it's electrically operated??). We have pretty much been forced to give up feeding the birds here because the food gets dropped on the ground (thanks be to greedy blackbirds and starlings) and it's attracting a lot of squirrels who are creating a ton of damage to the vehicles in our parking lot. Apparently car manufacturers, in their so-called wisdom, decided that it would be smart to make things like fuel and a/c hoses out of something that's soy-based....which is mighty tasty to squirrels. There have been at least six people whose cars have been targeted, along with massive repair bills, so we made the difficult decision to get rid of the feeder so as not to attract the bad element.
