I'm thinking this might be the color I need to finish up my Robin's nest. I promise, I truly promise i'll have a finish to share on Tuesday - one way or another!
The Cackling Geese are back in Alaska, and the Canada Geese have taken over the playing fields in town.
I now have a nice group of American Goldfinches.
The Evening Grosbeaks though are now erratic. The other day I had 6 females and 4 males. On Thursday I only saw one male. I do hope a few pairs decide o stay in the area and nest and raise their young.
The Mourning Doves are active - I've never, to my knowledge, seen a newly fledged dove. By the time the young birds appear, they look and behave just like their parents.
Here's an adorable couple.
She's probably got a clutch of eggs hidden away.
I hope the 869 is what you need to finish the Robin stitch. Enjoy your Friday, Beth!
ReplyDeleteOh yes--I think--Mr and Mrs Quail are a very handsome couple--
ReplyDeleteso I hope they will have some babies for you to watch grow--
I have wondered that about morning doves--as I only see large ones--
I do have some here that feed every day!
luv, di
