Wednesday the sun shone and the cats were happy!
Lots of good Bird Watching.

Father Swallow stood guard outside his family's birdhouse. 

A pretty day calls for a Junco Dance!

I thought it looked as though he was dancing...

I told the cats they'd best get moving as a Turkey Vulture was checking them out.

I did see a family of Quail Wednesday while bird watching with Tom-Cat.  I didn't have my camera and they were quite far away.  There may have been as many as a dozen babies.  

This Quail Couple has no children.

High atop a Large Leaf Maple, this pretty little bird caught my eye.

I stumbled across a Robin's nest and got 'bombed' by the parents.

They were engaged in bringing back food for the babies and did not like me so close to their nest site.

I think the Hummingbird joined the Junco in a Blue Sky Dance.

Hope you are able to dance a Blue Sky Dance today.

I've enjoyed watching your "bee" designs develop. I love bees, always have done. The photo of the three cats made me smile.

Pretty finish. That bee button is so cute.

Your cats certainly look engrossed with the birds. I don't blame them. Must have been quite the sight. I like the hummingbird best. He looks so cute with his head tilted to the side :)

Hugs,
Veronica.

The cat line-up reminds me of the scene in Some Like it Hot when the band arrives in Florida! LOL :)
