Glad everyone else knew what they were, because I sure didn't. Chickadees are my very favorite. They can be so silly and almost tame.

I'm working on it.:)<br /><br />Country Mouse, The Carolina Chickadee's call is the same as the Black Capped but does it with a southern accent.:) <br />From what I have read the Bird Flu is fatal. A mite infestation will not kill them. They will re-grown the lost feathers. Sounds like the birds you are seeing only have mites. <br />Oh....you don't want to see me in the morning.LOL!jeanlivingsimplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08820800238853344959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-28511491205904725462010-09-10T21:06:39.363-04:002010-09-10T21:06:39.363-04:00i had no idea what the flowers were either.

Two magpies, a crow and a few smaller ones. I wonder if the bird flu makes them look ill kind of like we do when we get out of bed with our hair all messed up and the housecoat on ;O)Carole Barketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18068078540295273489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7653157038282170244.post-73197700337623227402010-09-10T15:22:57.928-04:002010-09-10T15:22:57.928-04:00You must have the patience of a saint to capture t...You must have the patience of a saint to capture the shots you get.

I made a very silly mistake one morning last year when I looked out into my garden and saw a male blackbird diligently feeding several brown blackbirds crouched on my lawn, that I assumed were female. I thought it must be his harem! Of course, I discovered later that young blackbirds are also brown!
