...ye are of more value than many sparrows.

Over a course of a couple days, I watched two baby sparrows as they were fed by their parents.  I wondered as they brought food to the babies where in the world did they get the food?  It was so hot and the ground was so dry; but somehow they managed.  It's so cute when a baby bird opens its mouth up real wide!  Below are images captured during this feeding process. You'll notice one of the baby sparrows poking its head out from the right side of the birdhouse. Also, the last image is a male sparrow which I suspect might be the father.

Two birdies pose for their portrait!

This birdhouse is just outside our kitchen window.  I was trying to capture these two birds interacting but instead they stopped for a moment and realized they were being photographed.  It sure looks like they are posing for their portrait! :)  Since it was overcast with a dull-looking sky, I preferred the image in sepia.  Enjoy!

Bugs for dinner, yuck!!!

The circle whole in the front of the birdhouse is too small for birds, so a wren created a nest inside by entering in the sides of this birdhouse. This mother wren is leaving the birdhouse to get some bugs for her babies.

 I watched her from my kitchen window as she flew back and forth feeding her babies.

 Not sure but I think she has a baby wren in her mouth as she did not have it before she entered the next.  Then she flew off.

 You suppose she noticed me taking her picture?

 Got on our tractor and went touring in the pasture to get some wildflowers shots but ended up with a shot of our neighbor's horse, Reese.
