SkyWatch Friday - My Favorite Fellows




i guess i can't really call them fellows due to the color difference i'm pretty sure one is a female. they've been flying around my office and i was lucky enough to get them together, though not too clear since my zoom options aren't all that great. In person though they make a cute little pair.

What a fun post. I enjoyed your photos. It is so wonderful to sea the birds back around. They look they are having a wonderful time up there.

A Leonard Cohen song - "Bird On A Wire" - I did a post on LC a few weeks ago. Nice shot of the birds. :D

Nice shot. The sky and the birds are House Finches. The male is on the left with the red and the female is on the right.

Good photos.

They are really cute. I especially like the one with the birds on the wire.

Alan said...

Nice catching the pair. With birds, the more colorful ones are nearly always the male so they can attract a female - somewhat opposite of modern humans... :)

Andrea said...

Wonder what they are talking about. Nice shot.

Enjoy your Easter weekend.

What beauties! Finches? The only way I learn birds is by photographing them or seeing them in blogs, not books. Gorgeous shot.
