One red-tailed hawk and two mocking birds in the backyard a few days ago. Hawk was feeding on one mocking bird. The other mocking bird was making a frantic ruckus from atop the shed. At the conclusion all that remained was a pile of feathers. No pictures since I didn't want to disturb God's natural order of the animals...

I love to listen to mocking birds.

I have had the pleasure of listening to a tui singing nearby for a couple of weeks, on and off. But today he must have decided to settle down and stay awhile as he sang all day long.

They're so territorial too... the masters of mimicry. They occasionally land on our chimney top and fill the fireplace with bird song.

I haven't had the pleasure of listening to a Tui bird in person. They're beautiful birds...


My grandfather knew dozens of birdcalls and whistled them often as he worked in the garden or when he was building things around the property... back when I was but a wee tadpole. God bless grandfathers and grandmothers.

Pilgrim,

I enjoyed both videos. Thanks for sharing them.
You're welcome Tom. Beautiful creatures. God's creation... God revealed in His creation, all around us. Glory to God.

This is Hamish, at 7 weeks old.
He has now developed into an almost full grown spoiled monster.

Our little Hank and Lucy are 11 years old now. It seems like yesterday that we brought home two tiny balls of fur. It's been cold here, so they're almost in hibernation mode. I have a small bed for them in my office, and they're both in it. It's a good thing that they're both small dogs. We wouldn't want to see a fight over the bed.

Alright, I'll add to the collection.
The floofy one is now 14 and the stripey one 12.5 years old.
They are quite the characters and add so very much to my life.
A couple friends in our local creative writers group say that I treat them like roommates instead of pets.
Told my retired military officer not-a-cat-person Dad about that and he said, "For all practical purposes they ARE your roommates!"

They are gorgeous and I love the picture of them sitting in the boxes. But I think you've got it wrong. You are their roommate. :D

Thanks for sharing the photos. My last cat died years ago before I had a digital camera. Until recently a neighbour's cat was a frequent visitor and he was ginger like your two, but he's moved away now. I think cats are a very beautiful part of God's creation. :)
