If you love tatted lace, jewellery, plants and anything handcrafted, come back often.
I will regularly post items that are made by me, plants that I grow and interesting things that I photograph.

Olive-backed sunbird chicks
Look at the colour of the feathers. I think one chick is bigger. Survival of the fittest. Is the stronger one getting all the nourishment from mom.
Umi gets all worked up when mom comes to feed the chicks. I caught Tsuru trying to peep into the nest when I was watering the plants yesterday. They are curious to see what is in the nest.
What an unusual color. I hope that nest is well-protected from your kitties. Tsuru may meow like a bird, but cats and birds don't usually make friends!

ReplyDeleteOh Annie, don't worry. The chicks are safe. There is a glass door separating the chicks and cats.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful color. If I had these near me I would sit and stare at them all day.Thank you so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had, Pat. Then I would not have missed the moment when they flew off.
