Random Five Friday

Just a few facts about a love I have.



It's a fact....

I love Birds. 
They are such a joy to sit and watch.
It a great way to relax.  
I kinda feel the same way about fish.
There just a little tougher to photograph.


  
It's a fact...

I Love to take photos of Birds.
Not always the easiest thing to do cause 
They disappear the minute they see my camera.



It's a Fact....

I love to take photos of Birds 
even while there chopping on seeds.
And let me tell you they can make quite a mess.  
But I still love them.  



It's a fact....

I Love to take photos of Birds
even if they are a little bit camera shy.
And I have to get the shot through my window
from my family room.  That reminds me I need to
wash my windows.



It's a fact...

I need to trim my back my Star Jasmine..
Because they were kinda getting in the way of my shots. 





It's raining here today.
So I will be out dancing in the rain.

Wishing you a happy weekend.

Hugs~

Oh, I have a weekend away and when I get back you have been so busy and posted so many beautiful and amazing photos....I can't keep up !! Love this bird post..you are silly :)))) fact: of course we know you love birds. Pink...I love it and your gorgeous close up of, I think it's a Dhalia, is just wonderful as is your cute little pink canvas. Love the red car from Scavenger Hunt Sunday and the beautiful photos from your winery tour, are fantastic. Sorry I don't get to every post when you put it up, but I do have a lovely time here when I (eventually) arrive , so much to see and enjoy. xx

Barbara said...

Really nice Linda, I love birds also. My best lens for this type of photography was the 70-200 but had to sell it I just couldn't hold it up any longer because of it's weight. Haven't found another lens like it for bird photography. It's the pits getting old. I think you did a great job with them.

AppleApricot Wen said...

the birds will miss you Linda when you're out and about :)
Isn't that just a wonderful and relaxing thing to do, to watch those lovely creatures? When I feel stressed that's exactly the thing I'll do.
Beautiful photos!
Hugs, Wendy

Lisa Graham said...

Your bird shots are often among my favorites of the photos you post. Truly beautiful and natural. If one is not a bird-watcher, they are likely to become one after seeing your magnificent photography of them Linda. Really. xo

Wonderful bird pics, Linda :)

Sandie said...

I am glad you have a love of birds, because so do I, though I cannot get up close and personal like you and get amazing photographs.
Linda, would you mind if I saved a copy of your sparrow? I had a pet sparrow once, his name was Harry. I rescued him as a baby, he fell in an oil container as a baby. I never expected him to live, but he did and we became best of friends. My family had many years of love from our Harry, but sadly, I only have blurred photographs....
